Description

Another test image from DSW. This is experimental in 2 ways: 1) the location and continued testing of automation systems, and 2) I'm lengthening exposures. My "normal" NB exposures are 30 minutes. This is comprised of just a few 45 minute exposures. Perhaps I'll go for 1 hour next time.

This, of course, is an oft imaged target, but I plan to "lay on it" for several months at the end of each nights session. At Deep Sky West 6888 comes up at around 245AM local, so I'll hit it with 1-3 exposures every night until I have some stupid amount of time on it.

Oh, and check out the bubble...
