| IC410 - Diffuse Nebula in Auriga LAAstro.com by Bill Patterson |
| Date Taken: September 3, 2005 Location: Anza, CA Equipment: Takahashi FS152 telescope & SBIG STL11000 - Luminance Takahashi FSQ106 & SBIG STL4020 - Color Notes: This is part of my first tandem imaging project. Both scope/camera combinations were imaging simultaneously and data was combined in RegiStar. The seperate imaging systems were precisely aligned using a prototype alignment device from Robin Casady (http://www.robincasady.com/Astro/). LRGB = 120/30/40/40 - 4 hours of data acquired in 2 hours |

| Date Taken: September & Dedember, 2005 Location: Southern CA Equipment: Borg 77ED telescope & SBIG ST2000 Takahashi FS152 telescope & SBIG STL11000 - Luminance Takahashi FSQ106 & SBIG STL4020 - Color Notes: This image represents a joint venture with Vince Bert. We both imaged the object independently and later merged our files. Vince used 14 twenty minute exposures with an AstroDon Ha filter. The LRGB details are below. Vince's original image is at http://rattlesnakeobservatory.com/IC410.html . We both think the sum is greater than the parts :) |
