Description

I recently became a member of the Royal Canadian Astronomical Society who manage a
16 inch RCOS 3550mm telescope at SRO- see @Rick Veregin .  Piggy backed to the scope is a Hutech modified Canon 6D with a 200mm lens.

This image is from the RASC DSLR data base from 2021

I paid $100 for the use of the file set and I am not sure it should be tagged Professional, scientific data and every one already knows how I feel about Amateur Hosting.

All I know is this shitty weather made me do it.

The interesting part is that this is 1 hour with a DSLR camera and lens from a dark site
                                                             * I HOUR *  
Anyone who thinks that all Backyard astro stuff should be in the same category as Dark sky astro stuff is nuts.
