Taken from my back patio using the 130mm Refractor and a 17+year old (low res by today standards) usb planetary video camera. This was the result of sorting 5000+ frames into the best 2100 frames, stacking them and coaxing the detail out. The software does all of that tedious work now. Yes, it is small and that is simply due to the focal length of the telescope I own. It is very difficult to push the magnification with a 130mm lens.
Someday I would like to image it with a modern hi res camera and a telescope that measures 430mm.
