Description

I never knew about this object until I was just looking around on Stellarium about a week ago. I'm going to image it again once I fine tune everything, but I wanted it to be the first thing I imaged with my second set up. I've been slowly getting things and 3D printing parts for it since early July for it. I don't quite have everything yet but I'm impatient. I still don't have my EAF so the focus could have certainly been better. I also couldn't figure out why I couldn't get stars in my OAG, so I had to throw out some subs and not be too picky. There are definitely flaws in the image, but I couldn't not post it. Anyway, come to find out the next morning I had the stupid prism in backwards in my OAG. Pretty easy fix and I would have at least been able to have used PHD2, there's always something to go wrong. Anyway, I'm new to N.I.N.A. and everything about using a mini pc, but once I get everything dialed in and figured out with this set up I'm coming back to this one.

Title: NGC 1333 The Embryo Nebula

Description: Still not done adding data. I got my guiding to work, and it worked great. This revision uses data from last night as well as data from the first night. Tonight's going to be cloudy, but this weekend is supposed to be clear so I'm going to add even more, and I might not use data from night 1 since it had questionable tracking and collimation.

Title: NGC 1333 (Final)

Description: I put more time in this weekend, and until some other time this will be it. Dealing with some collimation problems mainly which can be seen in full res. Now it looks like some clouds for a while. Maybe a break on Wednesday with any luck. I'm supposed to have a Tiangong space station lunar transit that night.
