Description

I had to get the "shot". Imagine taking close to four hours (231 x 60secs) of exposures during a mostly cloudy night and managing to keeping 53 minutes of sub-par exposures?  Here is the result of 12.1 magnitude c/2022 U2 (ATLAS) as it passed through the Flame Nebula, from last night, 2023-02-11.
