M31 wider field

One night of clear skies, and I took all 8.5 hours of darkness into my soul 😊😊😊! Since I have to work and get at least some sleep I left the scope for 4.5 hours by itself, hoping that no surprising thunderstorm would roll in. And it did not 😊! I have to chose my targets correspondingly, my window is around 5 hours, so I have to pick the ones that just went above the tree line at the time of going to bed. And that was this time M31. And a good target to see if my ASI071MC together with the Wilson Z61 and its flattener is doing its job. And I believe it did 😊. I took at the same time OIII images with the Rasa, the combined image of that will come next. M31 is just glorious, and I will never get tired of looking at it. In 5-6 Billion years it would be even more interesting, ain't gonna make that one I fear.

From Version C on it includes the OIII data from the RASA!

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
