A good night seeing wise, but just not my night.

EVERYTHING running smoothly, with polar alignment to less than 30 arc-minutes out, guiding spot on, but for some obtuse reason, NONE of my GOTO targets are in the centre of the FOV! And that's with a spot on PA, which makes NIL sense.

Did test shots all night, and not a single damned galaxy showed, except at the bottom of one test. Tried realigning, but narp.

Gave up, gathered more Horsehead data, and tried Jupiter (dismal failure). Watched Prometheus on the laptop while waiting.

Stacking Horsehead now, so hopefully the night was not a complete loss.
