Deep Sky Objects - Herschel 400 Catalog
Astrophotography
Updated: 11 August 2023
The Herschel 400 Catalog is a famous list of 400 objects from William Herschel's "Catalog of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars" containing 2500 objects. All the objects are also in the New General Catalogue, hence NGC numbers are used. Images were taken with a Nikon D850 DSLR and a Meade 12" f/8 LX600. Click a thumbnail to see a larger version. I have posted my completed Herschel 400 Project Log (Excel file).
