Description

A perfect sky today, couldn't ask for better weather... not in Indiana in November, anyway. Set up the scope and took images, occasionally allowing passers-by the opportunity to look through the eyepiece.  Another 8 people in total had a look today.  It's very fun to be able to share this hobby with others!

The image came out well, not a ton of activity, so the animation is looking kinda so-so, I'll probably upload once I've finished processing it anyway.

Loving GregAlt's python script, I did a whole slew of images (33 of them) in no time by automating autostakkert, then running his script locally and processing the whole lot of them at once.

Edit: I've uploaded an animation as revision C. There's a pretty good jump in the middle when I was letting people take turns doing visual observations through the scope.
