Steve Paxton's photos with the keyword: CCD

my first solo night with the CCD camera(red in the PIP) I chose some thing the Northern Hemisphere would know and was not too complicated for me. This is the Southern equivalent. This is my first time dealing with Fits files not the normal photo file most would ever see a pure Astro file. Apart from a glitch that turned the whole computer off when I first went inside at 9 pm. the 33 shot 10min 5.5 hours worth. Guided shots that make this up after midnight When I got up to watch over the flip. Camera is running at -10c no not your normal camera as there is no shutter on a CCD there is no sounds just the turning of the gears on the mount. I will add the shot from my phone so you can see why I was watching the flip, camera came within 1 1/2" of the leg of the mount. this is why I watched the flip.
