Description

Probably the only weather-related chance in these days to record this close flyby of Ceres at M 100.
Windy conditions with scattered rainshowers kept me busy with roof-open/roof-close efforts all night ;).

This picture covers a period of 4.5 hours of Ceres movement.

Notice:
Apparently the plate solving overlay shows Ceres at 00:00 hours of 25 March 2023, 22 hours before I started recording.
That explains the deviation between the astrometric position and the effectively visible trail of Ceres.
