Objects Session Notes
AT2020ygo - Transient 'Nova-Like' Object (Type Unknown) NGC 2232 - Open Cluster (H VIII-25) NGC 2782 - Spiral Galaxy with Type Ia Supernova 2020scc UGC 4332 - Spiral Galaxy (PGC 23355) UGC 6930 - Spiral Galaxy with Type Ia Supernova 2020rcq Variable Stars (photometric monitoring) - None Nearby Stars (astrometric monitoring) - None
- Late night session (7 hr) interrupted by clouds / overcast conditions - Main aims of the session were the testing of new routine & bug fixes and acquisition of a selection of deep sky targets, together with some variable star, nearby star and comet targets (if conditions allowed) - 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging - TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging - Ambient Temperature: 1°C (min) climbing later as clouds rolled in - CCD Temperature: -20°C - Notes from 2020-10-28 >> -
