Description

Processing the mother of all evil and climate change a astrophotographers hellish environment. I gave my life a new challenge and try to domesticate a beast of heavy weight champion 12“ TS RC TrussTube on a CEM70G as a mostly travelling astrophotographer. I use the CCDT67 with not so bad results and the Antlia Gold DualBand 5nm does an amazing job in front of my 294MC at even full moon. The guiding in off axis is not funny I can tell my guidestars look like flying hearts and angels but never round and star like shaped so I will try to add the TS RC Flattener in hope to achieve better OAG and smaller nicer rounder stars at all! 

stacked >41darks, 15Flats, 41x300sec Lights gain489 - offset48 minus15sensor temp. 294MC, Antlia Gold 5nm DualBand.

clear skies to all my climate change warriors!
