Hello, this is PixInsight in Russian. The release of the collaborative image of Bode and Cigar has finally happened! This image was worked on by 17 people, we collected over 200 hours of light and this is one of the deepest images from Russia/CIS of this area of the sky! We gained incredible experience working as a team, we re-evaluated the possibilities of collaborative imaging and creating astrophotography. A big thank you to all project participants for the imaging and for providing data on Bode and Cigar. This image is yours.
