- Late night session (5.9 hrs duration). Very clear skies.
- Session operated under semi-automated control, with remote monitoring from indoors computer. - Ambient Temperature: 6.0 degC (minimum) by end of session - CCD operation -20 degC (at 64% average cooling). - Planned objectives of the session were to monitor selected variable stars and acquire images of selected gallery objects. - Hickson 4 and Hickson 11 images are rather poor and need to be re-acquired.
| Nova Del 2013 (Delphinus) Nova Delphini was discovered on 14th August 2013 by Japanese observer Koichi Itagaki at magnitude +6.8. Koichi had imaged the same field the day before and nothing was visible at the same location. The progenitor star was identified from archive images as being magnitude +16.9 Alias: V339 Del |
| Nova Del 2013 - 2015-11-01 (T+810d) taken 810 days after discovery when the nova had faded to around +13.6 |
