Description

24/12/2019 First imaging of this object - after a number of hours with issues of laptop, polar alignment and focus, was able to get a moderate focus and bring the M1 to an adequate state. In the end with perserverance, using APT for imaging and ASICAP for focusing the ZWO EAF (usually can do with APT but could not get to work), PHD2 etc things starting coming together. Look forward to attempting another go at this extraordinary structure with better circumstances.

31/12/2019 Last image for the year - UHC filter to obtain HA/O3 data and integrate with the previous RGB set. Polar alignment, guiding and laptop all worked well this time.
