Yes, well with the 3M Scopedome and AP1600GTO, I do have the potential to be able to setup as fully automated and remotely operated from Canberra, with cloud meter etc, so I could take advantage of the shorter clear periods or when it clears up unexpectedly etc buuuut, sadly, I have reached (ok well and truly blown!
) my approved observatory budget and just cant afford all the extra bits and pieces and WiFi/cabling links etc required now
...at least for a while anyway...I do have an all-sky camera, waiting to be setup

Yes I would like glow and detail but this target doesn't let you unless you take hours and hours and get close!

You'll just have to do several visits to Mudgee, its a great looking Andromeda, already
