Objects Session Notes
ARP 104 - Galaxies (NGC 5216 & 5218) ARP 239 - Galaxies (NGC 5278 & 5279) NGC 5693 - Spiral Galaxy (LCG 384 Member) Variable Stars (photometric monitoring) - R CrB CI Cyg, SS Her, U Her, FO Ori, FG Sge, V Sge, WZ Sge Nearby Stars (astrometric monitoring) - EV Lac
- Night session (6.6 hours)
Session operated in fully automated mode with some monitoring during the first part of the session
- Main aim of the session was to test stability of AstroMain program after adding features and acquire to some images if possible. Conditons were forecast to be marginal. - 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging - TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging - Ambient Temperature: Falling to 13°C (min).
Outdoors 12°C (min)
(Dew heaters on automated)- CCD Temperature: -10°C (68% av. power) - Notes from 2019-09-21 >>
