Far into our universe

[steel ruin]

Post Images of objects more than 100million lightyears away. Tell us how you made this achievement and how others could do it with objects even farther!

[fallen stirrup]

Took an image of this galaxy with a lot of magnification!

[steel ruin]

what object is that

[proper shore]

NGC 85 area (Dont know the name of the cluster), about 200 milion light years away

[stuck quiver]

Looks like cigar to me

[steel ruin]

Damn u got some good detail how much integration did you do

[proper shore]

Only about 2hrs at F10 with my C8 and 1600mm pro

[steel ruin]

very well

ngc 90 looking hot

the spiral galaxy to the left is ngc 90 (and 93 above) right?

or am i tripping

[proper shore]

I believe so

I should make an annotated version

[fallen stirrup]

This is the Cigar Galaxy with a saturated tint of blue! Thought it looked pretty cool like that! Here’s the raw image

[fallen stirrup]

A lot of detail! Nice

[deft granite]

UGC6211 (dot in the middle), a galaxy which is around 800 Million Light Years away from earth.

[woven night]

Galaxy cluster with NGC 200 (not sure about the name)

NGC 200 is at around 220 million lightyears away

Best of all, this was one of my untracked pics lol

[steel ruin]

jeez

u gotta try that again with ur tracker now

[fallen stirrup]

The little dumbbell nebula. I shot with a Redcat 51 so I had to crop it a lot but here you go!

[stiff trail]

For funzies I wanted to try and find the most distant object I could find in one of my images. This galaxy called PGC 2731294 (enlarged) is approximately 2.9 billion light years away. It's not like I got a detailed photo of it or anything, but it's still fun to know that stuff that distant is detectable with amateur equipment. There may be other objects still visible ish that may be further away, but it's really hard to find distance measurements for these, if there is any.
150/750mm scope + 1600mm pro

[steel ruin]

Holy sht

thats amazing!

[proper shore]

Definitely my deepest image yet, IC 2233 as the intended target and some quasars popping in to say hello!

Captured with my:

ASI1600MM Pro
ZWO LRGB Set
AVX (It sucks and ruined a good chunk of subs)
Nexstar 8SE OTA @ F10

L 120s x 72 (2h24m)
R 120s x 20 (40m)
G 120s x 19 (38m)
B 120s x 21 (42m)

Processed by me with

DSS, SiriL(for DBE), + Gimp

the second photo is a inverted version of the first cropped to two quasars. they are from left to right:

SDSS J081338.74+454356.9 (Mag 22) 11~ billion light years away
SDSS J081337.99+454449.6 (Mag 20.5) 10~ billion light years away

there are many more object in this image that I have not annotated

[stiff trail]

again its insane to me that stuff like this is detectable with amateur equipment

[steel ruin]

Farthest amateur image ive probably seen lol

awesome

[proper shore]

I'm gonna try for something further

[stiff trail]

Quasar APM 08279+5255
12 billion ly away ish

its like mag 17-18 i think

[proper shore]

that bright

[stiff trail]

havent attempted it myself, but ive seen some threads on cloudynights regarding it

[stiff trail]

its visible in stellarium, also there's the ra dec coords

[proper shore]

@quaint ridge

[quaint ridge]

very nice

[proper shore]

That inner galaxy might me doable

[muted snow]

This is a bit amateur.
Whirlpool galaxy - 30±5million lys away, the furthest thing out in space I've ever imaged I think.

I just had a thought: what about the space, the invisible black void, that's endlessly far away 🤯

[muted snow]

Elliptical galaxy located near M51

[scenic talon]

NGC 6336 in proximity to M92. 373 M light years 400*30s (3h 20min) of windy data.

[quaint ridge]

Quasars from multiple images. Furthest one is 12gly(in the m106 shot)

There is also a lot of far away galaxies in the first image

[cerulean hinge]

Both objects you shared are under 100 million lightyears away

[rotund python]

Not the furthest but one of the most distant quasars I’ve captured

[woven night]

stephan’s quintet, about 270 million lightyears away. Maybe you‘ll guess which one‘s mine and which is the photo from jwst.

[steel ruin]

right one is defo urs

[marsh girder]

Dammmmmm

Ngc2343

[hexed matrix]

that is insane. 2.9 billion light years away?!

[split laurel]

I actually photographed a galaxy located 3 billion lys away! (not the cigar)

just found some other galaxies, which vary from 500million lys to 3 billion lys

[hexed matrix]

WOW

[stiff trail]

Yep

[slim pebble]

I think 300 Million lightyears

[quaint ridge]

129.1 Mlyr detail

[split laurel]

Abell 2218 (2 billion lys)
