IC 1396, fast and wide.


Recommended Posts

My 'fast and wide' rig is now on the mount, RASA8 and SY135 lens. This is a combination of the two scopes over two sessions, 100 x 2 mins with the SY135/RC571c/NBZ and 151x 2 mins with the RASA8/QHY268c/NBZ. For some reason my laptop controlling the lens decided to reboot part way through the session, even though it was in flight mode... 

This data has no calibration frames applied, and I have spent no time attempting to adjust out tilt on the sensors, instead I have relied on the software to clean things up. The bi-colour image was very red so I have created a pseudo HST palette from the data. I'm not sure about the background colour but there does seem to be a lot of dust in this region so I have not meddled with the brown overtones.

Thanks for looking.
