Mira - variable star PLN 217+14 - Planetary Nebula NGC 3344 - Spiral Galaxy NGC 3521 - Spiral Galaxy Astrometric & Photometric Monitoring - SS Cyg, U Gem, (dwarf novae) - HIP 4429 (suspected variable) - U And, W And, Mira (Mira variables) - Z And, DV UMa, ER UMa, U Mon, RZ LMi  (variables) - BL Lac (BL Lac blazer) - HH And, Groombridge 34 (Nearby Stars) - AXP 1E 2259+586, AXP 4U 0142+615 (AXP stars)

3.8 hr session cut short by deteriorating sky conditions - CCD operation of -25 degC (at 69% average cooling). . - the other main objective was to acquire images for photometric monitoring of the variables stars U And, W And, SS Cyg and a suspected variable HIP 4429. - opportunity was taken to acquire some exploratory images of U Gem, RZ LMi and DV UMa which may be added to future variable star monitoring. - More Notes -
