      IC 1369 Area

      This field is centered on IC 1369 (Collinder 432), a small open cluster located approximately 10,500 light-years away in Cygnus. This 5+ degree field is just north and east of the Pelican Nebula. See the annotated version of the located of numerous other nebulae and objects.

      Luminance – 10x600s – 60 minutes – binned 1x1

      RGB – 10x600s – 60 minutes each – binned 1x1

      240 minutes total exposure – 4 hours

      Imaged over seven nights in August and September, 2022 at the IC Astronomy Observatory (Oria, Spain) with a FLI PL16083 on a Takahashi FSQ-106ED (with 0.73x focal reducer) at f/3.6 382 mm.
