Description

M101 has been the fill-in target for me since this February. Whenever something didn't go as planned I turned my scope to M101.  Since that happened quite often, I gathered five sessions of data of the target, most of them taken during cloudy and windy conditions.  Eventually, only the data of the last two sessions, which were taken at high elevation dark sites, were accepted by PixInsight's algorithm.  That's about a third of all subframes.
