Globular Clusters in ANOTHER GALAXY!

This is elliptical galaxy NGC185, one of the companions to the Andromeda galaxy. This image identifies some of the know globulars in and around NGC185. They were originally identified by H.C. Ford, G. Jacoby and D.C. Jenner in the Astrophysical Journal 213, 18-36 1977. Since then FJJ VI has been identified as a background elliptical galaxy by the Hubble Space Telescope leaving only seven globulars at this time.br/Scope: Homemade 8quot; f6 Newtonianbr/ Camera: SBIG ST-8XE using internal guide chip, SBIG clear filterbr/ Mount: Modified Meade DS-16 equatorial mount (Mathis drive system)br/ Exposures: 5 x 20 minutes binned 1x1br/ Images acquired using CCDSoft 5br/ Calibration in CCDSoft; PixInsight Lite and Photoshop CS2br/ Location and Date: near Cayley Alberta; September 2, 2006
