Will be the last galaxy for me of the season. Very very low in the southern sky for me, never getting higher than 29 degrees in the sky. I was surprised at the amount of Ha signal in the galaxy and then pulling the catalog I was no longer surprised. Very heavily catalogued and studied!! Something that popped out when i was doing the Continuum Subtraction was an odd object with a shadow in the middle of it. Turns out it is the core of PGC48287 so I am leaning to the side that that is real structure I detected! PGC4867 had some nice dots of Ha in it too. Finally there is a bright Quasar, QSO B1333-298, with a Z shift of 1.9 putting it at a comoving radial distance of 16.7 billion light years!
Hope you all had a successful galaxy season!!
