Objects Session Notes
38P/Stephan-Oterma - Comet C/2016 R2 (PANSTARRS) - Comet NGC 6939 - Open Cluster (Herschel VI-42) NGC 7044 - Open Cluster (Herschel VI-24) NGC 7296 - Open Cluster (Herschel VII-41) Photometric Monitoring - Variables - RX And, U And, Z And, CI Cyg, S Cyg, SS Cyg, BL Lac, CY Lyr, FU Ori, DY Per, GK Per, SU Tau
Astrometric Monitoring - Nearby Stars - EV Lac, Ross 248 (HH And), Teegardens Star
- Night Session (6.2 hours duration) .
Largely clear- Main aim of the session was to take images of a selection of deep sky objects, variable stars & nearby stars. - Session was mainly conducted as a fully Automated operation - - 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging - TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging - Ambient Temperature: 13°C (minimum) - CCD Temperature: -15°C/ -20°C (75% av. power) - Notes from 2018-10-21 >>
