Description
NGC 2903 is an isolated barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Leo, about 30 million light-years away from the Milky Way.
I should have had twice the data on this, but the night before last I must have been overly excited to see a clear sky and wasnt paying attention to
my dew heaters. I woke up for the meridian flip and noticed that the powerbox was showing 32 degrees and no humidity. It was more like 62 and 99 percent humidity!
Everything was soaking wet and my corrector plate was totally fogged. Oooopsie! Fortunately, last night was even better outside and I was able
to capture this.
