Supernova SN2011b two-frame sketch animation of fade

[DarkerSky]

Got another look at SN2011b last night in NGC2655. Conditions were poor with a thin veil of high cloud covering the area. The SN has really faded alot. Had to ramp the power up to x300 in my 12" to see it, but it was still there....just!

Made this two-frame sketch animation to show the fade. First obs was on Jan 30. Second obs last night Feb 24. If you look closely at the second frame you can see the very faint SN. I think it must be about mag 14 to 14.5 now.

The animation is made up of 82 frames ( in Image ready ). Is that correct ? If so, No1 is white and No2 is black. Can't you delete them ?

Nice work.

Dave.
