SMC & 47 Tuc

The SMC and 47 Tucanae

By changing the lens fitted to the ST5 CCD camera from a 50mm to a 28mm, the field of view became large enough to now include the Small Magellanic Cloud and 47 Tucanae in the same field. It was particularly interesting to see how well the globular cluster (47 Tuc) came out in this 20 sec. exposure.
