Comet 21p timelapse 33 minutes

[barkingsteve 772]

500 x 4 second frames at 20 fps. 33 minutes timelapse. Taken tonight with an evolution 925 at F/6.3 and an altair astro GPCAM3 385c camera. Mount decided to be a dick towards the end

Nice one ... it never ceases to amaze me how fast some of these objects move (angular speed rather than km/s!). Thanks for posting.

Thank you, rather than start a new topic, here are a couple i made tonight. Weekend and clear skies, would be rude not to.

There's another thread on here somewhere that says it is going to be passing through M35 later this month ... I think that would make quite an impressive sequence ...

Weather and work commitments permitting......

It passes through M37 on the 10th and M35 on the 15th September.

Wowwwwww! Thanks, that is SO COOL! What a visualization of the fact that yes, those things really are moving!
