Double Cluster experiment on the RASA8

Normally you see rasa images of widefield nebula and dust. Not so often on star clusters.

So I decided to have a go to see what would happen as I expected the stars to be "mis-shaped" due to the cables running over the corrector plate as the camera is on the front.

I am using a semi circle 3D printed cable router to try and reduce this

Here is the image and if you zoom in, you can see the misformed stars on the larger ones.

Overall, for a widefield in 60mins  (60x 1min subs at bin x1) not too shabby as long as you don't zoom in too much.1199779128_DoubleCluster.thumb.jpg.20d078336bb7c582a0c05204ee7a1c22.jpg

One of the downsides to the rasa.
