1 Hour of the Eastern Veil in Ha (NGC 6992)

[matt_baker]

Clouds kept rolling in so could only use 6 of the 600s subs

Still got some tilt so I focused on a star on the edge to even it out

All in all, a good first attempt with the new scope

A very good start! A bit noisy still so keep on adding data if weather permits.

I want to be able to do around 10 hours (5 Ha, 5 OIII) if the weather let's me but that might take a while seeing as it's England

Think there was a lot of moisture up there last night that probably counts for more noise than usual.10hrs should be just right on the veil. As said it is a good start and it is nicely framed.

Was rather humid and there was a lot of dew on a box I left out there last night
