Description

Shot under full moon! - HaRGB using Baader/ZWO filters + IDAS P1

This shot is a test to prove that a cheap Acromat can do the job - Orion 120mm F5 richfield scope with GSO focuser.

Since all shots were with mono QHY183M, each channel was independantly focused - acromatic scope was not an issue

All control was via INDI/EKO with OnStep running the mount (and MyFocuserPro2 arduino focuers)

Shot over 3 nights May 1 through 9th with moon either full or gibbeous

Intergation time above is not correct due to use of astrobin dropdowns - was actually 60x120 RGB and 50x300 Ha - total = 6.16 hours
