Is there finally a filter that actually works for visual galaxy observing? In today's video, we are deep-diving into the Omega GCE (Galaxy Contrast Enhancer) 2" filter. For years, the consensus in the amateur astronomy community has been that "the only filter for galaxies is a gas tank to find darker skies." However, the Omega GCE claims to change the game by targeting specific wavelengths to boost contrast on those faint "fuzzies." I take this filter out under the stars to see if it lives up to the hype or if it’s just another piece of glass for the collection.
