NOVA CAS 2021.

[bob-c]

Hi, nova cas 2021 imaged last night with my two rigs. 1st picture is from my wide field rig, WO STAR71mm / ZWO 1600mc 1st Gen 1x180s.

2nd picture is taken with my OOUK ODK12 / A A 294C ProTec  2x180s.  Mount Ioptron Cem120ec.

I last imaged it on the 25/3/21 and boy what a difference in magnitude it has undergone all of a sudden in these last few days. I believe it is reaching naked eye visibility from a dark location now.

Great to have a nova in such a photogenic part of the sky!

Nice shots @bob-c. Took me a while to work out the image scales and orientation in the second one, but got there in the end! It has certainly got brighter!!
