Objects Session Notes
NGC 2423 - Open Cluster (H VII-28) 46P/Wirtanen - Comet C/2018 Y1 (Iwamoto) - Comet Photometric Monitoring - Variables - AM CVn, SY Cnc, R CrB, CI Cyg, S Cyg, SS Cyg, U Gem, AM Her, SS Her, U Herc, BL Lac, CY Lyr, RR Tau
Astrometric Monitoring - Nearby Stars - DX Cnc, 61 Cyg, Groombridge 34, EV Lac, CN Leo
- Late evening / night session, Duration 7.3hr
Session operated in fully automated mode, and monitored over remote connection.
- Main aim of the session was general observing with mix of variable stars, nearby stars, comets and deep sky targets. - 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging - TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging - Ambient Temperature: 1°C (min) - CCD Temperature: -20/25°C (70%/83% av. power) - Notes from 2019-03-22 >>
