Description

I had some success with the first run of my Quark Chromosphere using an SVBony102mm and ZWO174MM.    

All the images were focused using the supplied manual 10/1 focuser only, so focus is rough. I have to get a thread machined for an adapter to fit my Moonlite focuser.  Seems I could use the ZWO EAF as it has attachments for the 102mm 10/1 focuser, but I think I can get better results with the Moonlite.  

No Hinode was used today for guiding and no flats were taken, which makes me wonder about the dark areas and light areas in the disk image. Is this something flats will fix?  I also will need to use the tilt adapter to remove some Newtons rings.

Animation was captured UT 2023/06/24 00:59 to 02:02

Thanks for looking
Peter
