Description

It has been a long time since last come out. I bought a new CPC1100HD with wedge for astriod occultation imaging and also image the moon and some planetary objects. So this Trapezium is its first time to imaging deepsky object. Very lucky to meet good seeing tonight.

The trapezium is clearly seen, as well as the F and G. And I found out there is tiny star near the F, this star can be seen in HST images, but unfortunately can not resolve H1 and H2.

Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy!


Clear skies,
Weitang
