M13 with the BRT

Last Friday I submitted a small number of jobs to the Bradford Robotic Telescope. So far I've had one back, it's an image of M13 in Hercules (which recently had a "close encounter" with comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3).

As with previous shots, the above is simply a JPEG export from the FITS file via AVIS.

As I look at the image it's kind of interesting to think that the photons that went into making it will, at some point, have crossed paths with the Arecibo message.
