Tonight we are finishing our imaging of Saturn, Jupiter, and NGC 2022. Last night, the processing of preliminary results of the exposures of NGC 2022 were promising. I was the first to get my hands on the raw data, and the first to expose in detail much of the outer shell; that was an experience I am quite proud of. There is a lot going on in the Football Nebula. It certainly a promising object.
On a less formal note, I enjoyed our visit to Summerhaven. Although my bad knee gave me problems today, the sight seeing was amazing, and I managed to find a few nice souvenirs to take back to Wisconsin and also another gift for Danielle.
I took a few exposures of NGC 1409/1410 for personal enjoyment, I look forward to processing them. I will post them as soon as I can.
I can't wait until I can get my 14 hours of sleep again...

I'm also really looking forward to sleep. 14 hours is a bit excessive though.
ReplyDeleteI loved being on the mountain but i too could not wait for good sleep in the hotel room.
