Description: IC 342 is a large spiral galaxy, similar to our own Milky Way. Because it lies just 10 degrees above the plane of the Milky Way, it's dimmed considerably by galactic dust. Imaged with a PlaneWave CDK 12.5, AP900, QSI 583wsg, Lodestar Guide Camera, Astrodon LRGB Filters in Dec 2013 in poor/moderate seeing conditions from Talent, OR.
