Don't worry too much about it, one night i was out with the 12" at curtin, got everything set, trained the drives did a PE run did everything as accurate as i could, even had the evening Astronomy 101 class coming to view what we did and see what we could see with the camera.

tripped over the power cord... !@#!@# IT and that would almost be the end of the night, we couldn't get anything to work after that! the go to was out by a country mile, and coupling that with a small FOV, all that work for nothing .

Then again in one night we caputured 6 different nebulae? go figure

Good obs report though its sometimes just nice to spend some alone time away from the hustle and bussel of everyday living! (and to get away from the mother inlaw )
