Description

We've been toying around with what can be done using just one hour of data on different objects. Instead of just using the best hour of data we've used the "average"  (~ weighting of 0.75 in the equation we use) but with the best exposure as the reference. So far we've found that star clusters hold up the best to more limited data sets which stands to reason.

Anywhoo, this is one hour of "average" data on NGC 5139.
