Objects Session Notes
C/2020 V2 (ZTF) - Comet - Imaging of IC 1874 w/SN2023fu failed (frames rejected due to cloud/bad guiding) Variable Stars (photometric monitoring) - None Nearby Stars (astrometric monitoring) - None
- Very short session (0.9 hours) due to cloud. Cloud delayed start of session and then skies became cloudy again less than 1 hour into the sessions and remained overcast until dawn - 12" LX200 + ST-10XME for imaging - TS 80mm APO + ZWO ASI178MC for guiding & imaging - Ambient Temperature: 1.5°C (min) - CCD Temperature: -20°C - Notes from 2023-03-02 >>
