Description

Still some problems with optical train alignment and lens-sensor spacing, or maybe because the filter connector is not perfectly tight (it has some mechanical "play"), anyway stars are not punctiform everywhere (there is an up-down asymmetry).
However my primary interest was to collect as much light as possible of this weak subject and I think I did all that I could in one night in my conditions.
In the future perhaps I may try a multiple nights project, but not this year.
