Day: 29 April 2020

Viewing Report – 26th April 2020 – Travel Setup

22:20 – 01:32

I have placed new filter, Baader IR-Pass 685nm from Mark Radice on the ZWO tonight and aimed to go after Venus on the Mak180 and capture another phase of the planet. I recorded several sets of data although noticed the filter does produce a somewhat pinky image.

Viewing Report 24th April 2020 – IMT3

21:23 – 01:29

NGC2903, focus point 73,602 for Lum HFR 5.46 Temp 18.13

Focus

NGC4565 @ 00:59

did not work straight away due to centring issues after reading in old image to plate solve and use as basis for slewing scope with SGPro. Finally just did this with TSX and worked.

@01:29 started Lum sequence for NGC4565 at -23℃ and 300 seconds
