Description

After several hours trying to get to know my new mount I knew I didn't have enough power left in my battery for much more experimentation. So I started capturing M42 and Sh2-279 for the first time and the battery eventually gave up during the blue exposures (thus there's only 12 blues). I removed the anti-dew heaters and the mount from the battery and could convince it to last long enough for me to capture darks and flats. I didn't expect much to come out of the data, but I'm really happy with the result.
