Description

Thanks to the acquisition of the small ASKAR FRA400 telescope, its short focal length and wide field, I can finally image the Andromeda galaxy with my CMOS camera. The result is much better than on my previous aquisitions with an APN. In particular thanks to the cooling of the sensor at -20°C.

To improuve:
Rather than taking 3X300s RGB shots, it would have been better to take more shorter shots. 9X100s for example.The result would have been less noisy.
