Objects Session Notes
Bullet C/2019 U5 (PANSTARRS) - Comet
   
Bullet IC 1132 - Spiral Galaxy with Type II Supernova 2022prv
   
Bullet SH 2-71 - Planetary Nebula (PLN 36-1.1)
   
Bullet Variable Stars (photometric monitoring)
- None
    
Bullet Nearby Stars (astrometric monitoring)
- None
  
- Although intended as an all-night session, ObsMonitor and JobQueue hung whilst taking second frame for Target 3/21 (Sh 2-71).  Although the automated operation to kill and restart CCDSoft released the ObsMonitor & JobQueue it left CCDSoft objects in a state where further requests to CCDSoft.Camera produced 'RPC Server is unavailable' exceptions and no further targets could be aquired.  The effective session length was only 1.0 hour.
   
- 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging
- TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging
- Ambient Temperature: 12.5°C (min)
- CCD Temperature:  -10°C
