NGC2403

NGC2403 can be found in the constellation Camelopardis and is one of the M81 galaxy group galaxies despite the fact that it is quite far away from M81. Its distance to Earth is about 10Mio LJ and its diameter about 70000LJ. It has two companion galaxies - very small and rather insignificant, both had been disrupted long time ago by NGC2403.
This image is a combination of two different sources - one is an RC700 from TL and the other part comes from one of my own scopes, a RASA11 with an ASI183. The percentage of contribution of each of these sources is about equal. As I cannot nominate two different sources, I have declared it as mixed sources origin.

I have replaced the original image with one of a slightly different format - I think it is a better proportion between the bright stars and the galaxy now...

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
