Thanks Andy. I imaged the galaxy over 9 nights in October and early November with an average nightly capture of 3.88 hours. I keep the capture folders of each imaging run just to work out how many nights these things take to complete capture. I don't go to the same extent that Rolf does, however the logs are also kept which could identify how much data is collected each night.
