It was clear last night with a thin crecent Moon about to set, so I fired up the Hyperstar 4 on the C11. Target the Leo Trio. 4-minute subs with a 1-minute dither so I was planning on getting 15 subs before calling it a night. Managed to get down 12 subs when the computer suddenly rebooted – it wasn’t even connected to the Internet! So I had to make do with 48-minutes worth of subs (nothing to write home about) which I added to earlier data to get the above result. Didn’t add much (if anything) probably helped by the collimation being out a bit. So if it’s clear again tonight (quite likely) then it’ll be collimation time so that I am set up for galaxy season.
