Description

At the mid and end of February, there was some kind of  "fair-weather disaster" at my location in Aachen (Germany). We had clear skies at night for several days in a row. What a stress! Since my telescope now runs alone during the night, a total of over 50h exposure time came together. Actually I should have used the nights to adjust/collimate the Newton, but collecting photons was somehow more important to me. Better egg-shaped stars on pictures than no pictures at all. But see for yourself.
