Description

My first attempt at comet imaging and processing. 
Processing it, in particular aligning stars and comet images without too many artefacts, is a real pain, but I'm fairly happy with the result.
This was 43 x 2min subs between 4:30-6am on 17th Jan 23

I collect 43x2min of luminance data from my piggybacking RedCat51 but didn't process/include it (or haven't yet?)

To be clear....it is a solar system object, but Astrobin seems to be forcing me to choose fps and stuff with this option, as if it were planetary ....and doesn't give comets as an option as far as I can see, so I've selected DSO.  Apologies if this is wrong.

Title: Meteor just passing through!

Description: Single 2 min sub (well, one RGB, one mono Lum) captured a small meteor (maybe just space dust) passing in front of the comet. Thought it looked neat so here it is!
