Description

18x 180s exposures... didn't realize I did not have a zero gain dark frame for a 3 min exposure so used master bias to calibrate... realized after all exposures that my primary was somehow pinched, leading to triangular stars... took everything apart and re-collimated today. oh well. Better collimation versions to follow.

OTA is a GSO 10" f/5 with a Teleskop-express carbon fiber upgrade tube, upgraded stiffer secondary spider and larger 82mm secondary. Feathertouch FTF2015BCR-RP focuser.
