mastodon - Link to source

First (night) light with the new scope, just 3 hours worth of DNB data. I'm amazed of how much data it already collected, can't wait to get more time under the stars :)

There are a few things I need to tune and I also need to figure out how to collimate properly though it was a lot less pain than I anticipated.

Anyways, this is the Elephants Trunk Nebula in HOO :)

A picture of space. To the left is a pilar like structure of dust where the top part is separating and curling at the top. On the right side are very fine dust lanes, just like hair. While the bottom part is red from the hydrogen the middle and top parts are also blue and purple due to the oxygen.
