Description
This is my second go at imaging from my university. This time, I felt confident enough to bring the C8, and I brought a Celestron Power Tank to power the Advanced VX and keep the laptop charging so it wouldn't prematurely lose power because of cold air. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring the 3x barlow to the field, but I don't think it would've brought in any extra resolution due to lackluster seeing. As with the previous imaging session, transparency was variable from high clouds.
Notes:
- The Equatorial Zone is still orange.
- The South Equatorial Belt is split by a white zone.
- The Great Red Spot is setting.
- There appears to be little to no wake trailing the GRS.
