Description

Shot under bright moonlight. I was testing a new addidional (helical) focuser, the one on this 25 jear old refractor is notchy, stiff and coarse (tried to lubricate it but it is still coarse and has big backlash). So far I am pleased with the result.
Also I am testing Astro Pixel Processor now because Siril just can't do enough and PixInsight is a pain to use (my opinion). APP seems to sit right in between these two.
