Having nothing better to do at the moment, I decided to take a look at combining images done over different years.
Not all the image overlapped, but a fair bit did, but I took a CROP anyway to get in closer to the detail.  Also used some more recently acquired processing tecniques.  Always a good idea to go back and reprocess images as you learn more.
Both being Newtonian's and the spikes going in different directions, I think I got away with it.

Combination of image taken in 2016 with a SW 150P and Atik314L(4 hours)
Plus image taken in 2019 with a 130PDS and Atik460EX (3hours 5mins)

Total 7h 5mins
