Description

This is the first project that I've worked on with my new 10-Micron GM2000 mount, unguided.
It has been a year of blood, sweat and tears! Thanks to my wonderful husband and friends for helping with construction of the new telescope pier. 
Then the business of sorting out the new software, model building and integrating my trusty ASIAIR-plus into the process for ease of use.
It's great to finally have it up and going!
