Davey-T Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Tried imaging Neptune between the neighbouring Leyandii last night while hoping for Aurora.Do we think this is Neptune ?No calibration so ignore noise dead pixels etcDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macavity Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Do you have Stellarium? If you know the observing time, you can superimpose theimage field (chip dimensions / orientation). Check pattern of surrounding stars etc. Last night there was seemingly a mag +11 star about 2 arc min NW of Neptune- This as a start for "getting your bearings"? I do try to be honest with these claims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey-T Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 Looks like Stellarium view with sensor/scope superimposed, more dim stars visible on the original image, not sure how quickly it moves against the star background may try again tonight to see if it's moved, if it's clear.Only get about 10mins to catch it between the trees.Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
