New Orion Starshoot Autoguider???

Posted By Miguel Olivares

Looks like the QHY 5. I wonder if the specs are the same.
The Starfish (S&T article), and QHY 5 autoguiders use a Micron MT9M001 CMOS chip.

The topographic(?) clouds along the limbs are easier to see on the RGB shot, but the LRGB composite looks great.

Very nice! smile

What foul language? Isn't this the politics forum? Should I paraphrase my last post, or should I say good-bye to my account?

I guess the truth hurts.
