My second remote telescope Image. This one from an observatory in Chile with a 24" planewave Dall Kirkham scope. The images is of NGC1365, a galaxy in Fornax difficult to image at our latitude. This object only gets around 9 degrees above the horizon here. NGC1365 is only 6x9 arc minutes in size and the core less than 1 arc minute across, so a large scope is necessary at any latitude to get a good image scale. NGC13665 is 200,000 ly across and 60 million ly from earth.
