11:17 - Conclusion and How to Join the Group
We decided to join a group to collaborate on a deep space image altogether! We combined our data with 15 astrophotographers to produce what might be the best ever image of Messier 51 (The Whirlpool Galaxy) ever taken. We were able to reveal a lot of faint signal, including the Ionised gas cloud and the blue stellar stream. The total integration time fo this image is just about 255 hours!

Absolutely stunning result! M51 will always hold a special place for me. It was the first "real" deep sky object I ever imaged back in 2019 or so. The image was an underexposed, trailed and blurry mess and it was captured with an f/12 MAK and a DSLR using the stock alt/az mount on a wobbly deck against a streetlight consisting of barely 20 minutes of 30s exposures. In spite of all that, it somehow still remains one of my favorite images.

Thanks Alan! I don't believe that anything new was disovered, a 2015 paper ( iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2041-8205/800/1/L3/pdf ) covered the tidal stream in depth, and a 2018 paper covered the HA cloud ( arxiv.org/abs/1804.01699 ). Not sure about the blue stream
