Not a world class shot, but it is my first one in the Fastar mode with the ST-237A and a C8. 28 one minute LRGB images stacked and processed in Images Plus.

NGC891 with ST-237A

Posted By Ralph Encarnacion
I took 24 2 minute images on NGC-891 with my little ST-237A mounted on a NP-101, unguided on a G11/Gemini. Not bad considering the camera I used is everybody elses guide chip wink

I took a few shots of M1 with my ST-237A last night. The camera was mounted on a TV NP-101 riding on a G11/Gemini. Autoguided with a ST-4 mounted on a converted finder scope. 16 shots total LRGB, 5 minutes each.

Sun today in H-Alpha

Posted By Ralph Encarnacion
Not much activity today on the Sun. I mainly just wanted to try imaging with a portable, light weight setup. Maxscope 40 on a Mini Giro, and Nikon 990.

NGC1977, ST-237A, The Running "Little" Man

Posted By Ralph Encarnacion
I got some clear skies last night and got a chance to finally setup again. Here is a little shot of the Running Man taken with an ST-237A on a Televue NP-101 mounted on a G11/Gemini. 12 five minute LRGB shots, processed in Images Plus. Autoguided with an ST-4 mounted on a converted 50mm finder as my guide scope.

M42 with ST-237A

Posted By Ralph Encarnacion
We had a beautiful night last night here in Austin Texas. I decided to image M42 with my little ST-237A mounted on a Televue NP-101. One of these days I am going to afford a bigger chip, but for now, I have to try to do the best with what I have. I didn't quite frame it right so I will probably have to do it over again, but I will post what I have. 40 two minute images with 5 darks averaged and subtracted in Images Plus. The mount is a G11/Gemini autoguided with an ST4 on a converted 8x50 finder scope.
