Carbon star W Cassiopeiae
Only 9 x 10-minute subs from the Sky 90s and M26Cs went into this one – but as that is clearly enough – it has got me re-thinking how best to use the Mega-WASP array for my work.

Epsilon Cassiopeiae region
Used the 3 x Sky 90s and M26Cs on the Mega-WASP array to image the Epsilon Cassiopeiae region together with Greg’s Lambda. Clear Moonless evening 🙂

The megaWASP array does Arcturus
A couple of nights ago with a full Moon I took some Arcturus data with the 3 x Sky 90s. I combined the recent data with some taken a while back and came up with this result 🙂

Pac Man nebula reloaded
I composited some 4-hours of Hyperstar III data and some 6-hours of Sky 90 data to give the following deep image of NGC281 – the Pac Man nebula.

La Superba from 22/03/2015
I managed to get 4-hours worth of 10-minute subs on La Superba last night using the mini-WASP array. I composited this with around another 4-hours of data from a Sky 90/M25C combo – so around 8-hours in total using 10-minutes … Continue reading
The Merak region in Ursa Major
I had one hour last night to get a 2-framer of the Merak region before thick heavy cloud came over. As it was, many of these subs were taken through thin high cloud which put a great glow around Merak. … Continue reading
