Description

2nd attempt at M31 with new equipment.

New

1. Dedicated Cooled Astro Camera - OSC

2. 0.85 Flattener/reducer

3. 2" Baader Moon & Skyglow Neodymium filter

From what I can see, stars to the edge of the field are pretty round and there are no halos. It must be noted that this image has no darks, flats or bias just the integrated subs. Need to figure out how to do calibration frames with a dedicated OSC.

This is also only 2 hours of data, so I am very very very pleased with the level of details with so little time. Had some issues with guiding but due to image scale managed to keep about 60%.

This is going to be fun
