Description

Last night I had multiple problems with this object especially with my material. First everything seemed to be allright, then I forgot to plug in the lense heating, so I had dew on the lense until i realized it. Then right after meridian flip, the EQ3 just stopped to work. The hand controller worked as it should, but the motors weren't doing anything. So this imaging session stopped after 25 frames with dew on the lense.

On top there is I think a problem with a tilted sensor. (left lower side)

I had to crop the picture a lot, because it was even worse than you see it here.

This picture is the result of the data i could rescue over this night. ;-)
