Description

I have been wanting to start this project for a year. I started shooting on March 17, 2021. Trying to shoot above 30 degrees in the light polluted skies to my south has been sporadic due to weather and that the sunrise occurs when this object is at the meridian. It is noisy and I want to double the time on this in May when it will be higher in the sky earlier before sunrise, so their will be a revision.

Description: Fantastic seeing last night. I added four more hours to this and deleted some questionable subs from last month. Total time for integration 11.75 hours with the Meade 6000 70 APO and the ASI2600MC
