Objects Session Notes
C/2017 T2 (PanStarrs) - Comet C/2018 W2 (Africano) - Comet IC 2098 - Spiral Galaxy IC 2207 - Spiral Galaxy IC 2461 - Spiral Galaxy NGC 3068 - Spiral Galaxy (ARP 174) PGC 11392 - Spiral Galaxy UGC 2614 - Spiral Galaxy with Type Ia Supernova 2019pxo Variable Stars (photometric monitoring) - RX And, U And, CY Aqr, TT ARi, TV Cas, YZ Cnc, S Cyg, U Gem, BL Lac, RR Leo, FO Ori, NV Ori, DY Per, GK Per, WZ Sge, CM Tau, RR Tau Nearby Stars (astrometric monitoring) - HH And, LAMOST-HVS1, Scholz's Star, Teegardens Star
- Night session (6.9 hours)
Session operated in fully automated mode with monitoring during the first 2 hours
- Main aim of the session was to take images of selected comets & deep sky targets and to checkout bug fixes to AstroMain / AstroGuard, and use observatory in 'RainTrim' mode for first time. - 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging - TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging - Ambient Temperature: 9.0°C (min) before climbing later to 8°C
Outdoors 8.5°C (min)
(Dew heaters on automated)- CCD Temperature: -15°C (70% av. power) - Notes from 2019-10-07 >>
