Objects Session Notes
Bullet NGC 7025 - Spiral Galaxy
Bullet W And - Mira variable
Bullet V Sge - Variable Star (Type E+NL)
Bullet Astrometric & Photometric Monitoring
- U And, W And (mira variable)
- BL Lac (blazar)
- RX And, Z And, RU Peg, R CrB, U Sge (variables)
- Ross 248, 61 Cyg (Nearby Stars)

Attempts at SS Cyg, V2491 Cyg, AM Her, Groombridge 34 failed due to cloud

 

- Late evening/night session (3.0hr) - operated under automated control
- Poor transparency / high cloud ?
- CCD operation of -20 degC 
(at 88% average cooling).  
- main objective was to acquire images of certain selected stars for ongoing photometric and astrometric analysis in particular U And, W And
