The LX200 and MallinCam Experiment - M32

M32 - a dwarf elliptical galaxy in the Andromeda constellation. It's a sister galaxy to the more famous Andromeda Galaxy, M31, which is what I actually thought I was capturing with the MallinCam.

It was difficult processing this video as there aren't many good reference images out there for what this galaxy supposedly looks like. Some images show the nucleus being huge, while others show it being small. While I was able to achieve both renditions during processing, I arbitrarily opted for the smaller nucleus.

Messier 32 (NGC 221) - Le Gentil

Either way, I think it looks like a blurry globular cluster.

This shot was taken with a focal reducer on the back of an LX200-ACF.  Next time I'll take off the f/3.3 reducer to get a more magnified view. I attempted to do that after I took this recording, but the clouds beat me.
