caught NGC 4157 and a satellite (Halifax)

The Burke-Gaffney Observatory imaged edge-on NGC 4157. A canted spiral galaxy in Ursa Major. One of the RASC Finest NGCs. Dark dust in front of a compact core. It does not seem symmetrical.

Dang, an artificial satellite wandered through the luminance frames...

Luminance only, 60 seconds subexposures, 10 stacked shots. FITS Liberator, Paint.NET. North is up; east is left.

It looks like there are a lot of small faint fuzzies in this image, particularly to the north of the central galaxy, and to the east. SkyTools 3 Pro only identifies a few subjects.

LEDA 213943 is a bright thin almond-shape to the south-west of the big spiral. In Ursa Major.

LEDA 2377854 is to the north-east. It is a dim oval. In Canes Venatici.
