Spiral Galaxy
NGC 1300
Eridanus
3 H 19.7m -19° 25'

Magnitude: 10.4
Size: 5.5' × 2.9'
Distance: 61 million light-years

Skill Level
NGC 1300 is faint, small, and low in the sky. It requires good capture skills.

Recommended Equipment
Use a rich-field Newtonian to maximize light-gathering power (though at the expense of resolution).

An SCT will give you better resolution, but it may require much longer exposures.
