NGC1060

About this celestial object

The distant galaxy NGC 1060 appears as a quiet patch of light in the Perseus region.

NGC 1060 lies in the Perseus area and belongs to a galaxy environment traceable visually only under dark skies.

With a little over ten minutes total time at only about 5° altitude, the galaxy still separates cleanly from the star field.

The 250 mm refractor at f/5 holds the wide field steady and finely resolved.
