Wow Mark that looks quite incredible really, astroimaging nirvana

Have you had first light yet?

Mike,

Thanks mate!

I was waiting for the new moon, so i have been imaging for the past few nights now.
Went to bed for the first time last night while leaving it to the software, scary feeling but i have to start trusting the system eventually.

Woke up, and everything was as it should be. The script stopped about 4am due to clouds and the dome shut down successfully!

I have more data to collect for my first light, but i hope i can manage it by the time the moon comes back.

Cheers
Mark
