These earthly godfathers of Heaven's lights, that give a name to every fixed star, have no more profit of their shining nights than those that walk and know not what they are.

— William Shakespeare

I hate to be repetitious but I had to go back to the Elephant Trunk in darker
skies. Here is a latest attempt at IC1396 from a dark sky site.

It was only about 48 minutes of Hyperstar with the Meade 14 and QHY8 before the
rains came. I auto guided 24 subs at 2 minutes each.

Clear Skies,
Dave

48 min? Looks like Hyperstar is compressing Time pretty good ;)
