old_eyes Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Captured on Pier 5 @Roboscopes (Tak Epsilon 180, ASI 2400MC Pro, IDAS RGB filter, unguided Paramount MX). 5.5hrs in 180 sec subs. Processed Pixinsight - cropped from full frame. Dust in Ursa Minor fairly close to Polaris. Is often described as an integrated flux nebula (IFN) reflecting light from the milky way galaxy itself, but I am not sure. An image from @gorann taken about the same time with his dual RASA-8 rig is (in my view) far superior . But hey! I got something from this difficult and faint target. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Perhaps Roboscopes needs a RASA.😁 Maybe we should suggest it.... I suspect they are staying well clear due to the time taken to set it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_eyes Posted June 1 Author Share Posted June 1 The Tak Epsilon 180 is pretty fast (f2.8), so I suspect @gorann had more data, possibly better skies, but certainly stronger skills than me 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
