• This appears to be a slightly too small field of view, though I think it will be a bit difficult picking up the extended emission without saturating/blowing out the central region. Reserving judgement for now. MER-C 17:52, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
• The image has lots of noise in some areas, isn't it excessive?! Bammesk (talk) 01:14, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

  Astronomical images are generally noisier than photographs. This is not because of the equipment - any emission slightly below the detection threshold appears as noise. MER-C 08:54, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
