Description

IC4678 at the edge of the Lagoon
This one is from the last two nights, after a break of 4 weeks it was good to see that everything still works perfect before I´m off to Namibia tomorrow to do some service work atthe observatory.
I will replace the C3-61000 pro with  the C3-61000 pro EC  as it can get very hot during the Namibian summer and I was not always able to reach -10 at imaging start.
Other than that just clean the mirrors and check collimation with Skywave.
Anyway I hope you enjoy the image.
Wolfgang
