Subject: Working down the backlog of images from W1..IC 342 Spiral Galaxy <<$175562086640$>>

I am still working off my backlog of unprocessed images from Brickhouse Observatory. This is of IC-342, a spiral galaxy that is right in the plane of the Milky Way galaxy and is hard to see. However, my trusted SBIG STT-8300M & filters camera with 20 minute sub frames pulled it out nicely. It is about 10M LY away and has a gravitational effect on our galaxy and other members of our local group of Galaxies. Total exposure time is about 2.0 hours and was shot on January 19, 2017.
