Here is a image of the Horse Head Nebula taken on my MX, with it's new worm block.

This is a 10 minute unguided exposure, with Pro Track on. The PEC has not been programmed this is why there is a small amount of movement in RA.

The image scale is .6 arc seconds per pixel.

Camera SBIG STi mono.

OTA Planewave CDK12.5

Mac OS

I measured the PE of the new worm and it is around 3 arc seconds peak to peak. I will need some clear stable sky to correct it effectively.

I am thrilled with this result.

The MX is an awesome mount.

Cheers
