Great news for Greg & Noel – our image of La Superba has made it onto the APOD [Astronomy Picture of the Day] site for December 18th 2008!!!!!! This image was taken over 2 evenings using the Sky 90/SXVF-M25C combo, and the picture is square because I changed from portrait mode to landscape mode between the two imaging sessions.
I have always been fascinated by La Superba and when I saw it was as red on the monitor as described in the literature – it became an even more awe-inspiring object!
