The Leo Trio of Galaxies
Last night I got 12 x 5-minute subs on the Leo Trio using the Hyperstar 4 and ASI 2600MC-Pro CMOS camera. I added this data to previous HS4 & HSIII data and the above is the result. Pretty disappointing not … Continue reading

M44, the Beehive Cluster in the constellation Cancer
Managed to get 28 x 150-second subs on M44 last night using the Hyperstar 4 and ASI2600MC-Pro CMOS camera. Collimation was pretty good during this run.

A Reprocess of the IC2087 Data Taken on the Canon 200mm Prime Lenses.
I just reprocessed the IC2087 data that I aquired back in 2016 on the Canon 200mm prime lenses and the Trius M26C OSC CCDs. This is 10-hours worth of 20-minute subs.

A Composite Leo Trio Using Hyperstar 3 and Hyperstar 4 Data
This is a composite image of the Leo Trio using old HS3 data and very recent HS4 data. Still not showing the tidal tail so plenty more work needs to be done on this one.
