Description

Clouds cleared late yesterday night. I imaged this from midnight to 2am. The transit was at 12:45am, so I got about an hour on either side. Luckily, I did not have to deal with any meridian flip on my Skyguider mount, as the scope/camera all were clear of the tripod for the entire duration.

This was my first time I'm imaging something with the telescope pointed straight up. For a while in was nervous that the camera would just fall out! Haha.
