Description

I forgot to bring the power cord for the Advanced VX home this weekend, but that's not an excuse to skip imaging. Manually aiming an equatorial mount designed to be used electronically is surprisingly awkward and difficult. I removed the barlow to make aiming easier.

Notes:

The Equatorial Zone is orange.
