Description

Not only the pretty pictures, but also the failures can be published! These horrible star images are not exactly what I had in mind.

The scope was on it's pier left untouched since yesterday so you have a tendency to think the optics alignement is still ok: think twice! It's a SCT after all...

Not quite in focus or misaligned optics forced me to reduce image size severely. Next on the checklist: verify optics alignement like ALWAYS for a SCT.

20x 60" and 10x 180"
