Description

Waited so long to image this. It was planned to spend 5 hours on this. Supervised the first 2 hours until meridian flip was done and went to sleep. Unfortunatly a guiding error destroyed the second half of the session and changed the framing from sky into a tree. Had to throw away all lights that were captured while I was sleeping. 
Hopefully there will be a second chance to image this whilest being in the eastern sky because it really needs some 3-6 hours of extra data.
Edit 2024-01-10: added 3 hours of integration time from the last two nights. Result is much clearer now.
