andromeda II


Yet more memories. Must have been in the sixties when I got this book.

Added more light frames: plate solved in APT and started again. Even included a meridian flip. Maybe I got too ambitious. The modest data set looks just as good if not better. Terrible framing caused by impatience and cold 10º gusts from the northwest left me having to crop 400 pixels from the top. Anyway...
