Description

Very short exposures of 120", 20 in all for a total of 40min integration. Was just a quick test of my new AT8RC to make sure optics were good. I was shocked at how much I actually captured with such short exposures and total integration, that's what moving from an 80mm to an 8" will do to you I guess.

I can not wait to get this setup ( including my brand new OAG system ) out under the stars for some serious photon collection. If this is any indication of what this scope can do, I am going to have A LOT of fun!
