Crescent Nebula NGC6888

19 May 2024

I had another amazingly clear night last night so I stayed up very late to get more data on the Crescent Nebula. The night was very calm, the moon had set and seeing was good. I was managing 10min subs without star trailing or overpowering the camera. In total I managed to get 2hrs worth of subs. I could have got more but at 3am I was ready for bed. I also managed to get another 3am session a few weeks later to bring the total integration time to ~5hrs

Skywatcher Evoguide 50ED with Starizona Flattener, az-gti, sv220 narrowband filter, Risingcam IMX585, guided, ~5hrs of data
