I finally got a chance to check out my new (old) scope last night. I¹ve been looking at the Orion 190 F5.3 Mak-Newt but have been put off by the price. I...
All I can say is Sweet So happy to see you posting images again I think that ST2000 is a Keeper no matter what scope you put it on. Jerry Gaber _____ From:...
Nice shot, Amigo. That scope/camera setup looks to be a great performer. Can't wait for the DSLR star test. This is looking more and more like a good decision....
That is nice Steve. Does the coma corrector really make a lot of difference? Kirby From: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com] On...
Here is a M51 I have been working on. ST10 and 4000xcm. The data was acquired over the last couple of weeks. The conditions were poor when I did the ST10...
Are you using the AO with the ST10 or just mount guiding? And This looks big What scope are you using? Jerry Gaber _____ From: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com...
Very Nice Steve! Looks like that setup is going to work out very well. SS ... I finally got a chance to check out my new (old) scope last night. I’ve been...
Nice catch Chuck. Thanks for sharing. SS ... http://www.zianet.com/csterlin/20090601_WSTF-Flyby/index.html This is something you don't see every day... Chuck...
Kirby, I¹m not sure how much difference it makes. I had the Celestron version of this OTA a couple of years ago, and seem to remember that it did well with ...
Thanks Steve, it certainly looks promising. BTW, I erased and burned the latest Gemini software into your EPROM. If you want, send me your address and I¹ll...
Nice job Kirbini. Did you shoot any Ha with the ST10 for that to pull out some of the red? Or did you get that from the 4000? If just the 4000 how many/long...
This is just mount guiding - no AO. The C8 is the scope. Kirbini From: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Jerry...
Thanks Steve. No.that is just the ST4000 color. 5 at 10 minutes and 15 at 5 minutes. A little over two hours of data. Push the saturation on the color...
As mentioned at the last meeting, there is a star party scheduled for Glenn Westfall's Cub Scouts on Friday June 12th at Veterans Park on RoadRunner Parkway....
Unless Dave hits me with a golf ball, I should be able to support this. I'll likely bring my ED80 and my cheapo EQ mount. There's no drive on the mount, so...
We are going to try to get all the kids both their belt loop and pin. There are a few things they will have to do on their own, but for the most part then can...
Glenn, I'm an idiot (Chuck included all the requirements in his original email). Even though I'm an idiot, I am happy to try to teach some aspect of the loop...
I haven't taken any new pictures recently, so I went back to one I took at TSP and played with it a bit more. The link below shows my Hyperstar (combined...
fyi... I wrote Harry Teague last week about the lights to the West of Upham. They've written me twice in the past couple of days. They are attempting to...
Cool Rich. Looks like you put a lot of work into this. Thanks for sharing. SS ... I haven't taken any new pictures recently, so I went back to one I took at...
I agree. Looks like A LOT of work. What reference do you normally use to ID everything? Very nice image though! George To: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com ...
I guess I am just not getting it. I am trying to use ImagesPlus and have read though most of the manual and watched a few of the videos. I know I have to...
Hi Glen, It's really hard to judge the focus at the resolution of the attachment. It actually looks pretty good at that scale. If the focus looks soft at...
Glenn.Can't tell much from this image because it is so small. Can you send out one that is closer to 100 percent. It does not look too bad at this image...
Hi Glenn, You're right, there's some focusing issues and quite a bit of coma on the edges. I'm presuming this is a Newtonian reflector, so you will want a coma...
Glen.... Questions 1. Your scope is an f/5 reflector on a GEM mount....right? Please confirm. 2. Have you checked the collimation of the scope? At f/5 it...
