Description

I had taken in the C8, but the sky cleared again. Instead of risking a repeat of what happened earlier, I pulled out my Sky-Watcher Classic 150P to quickly get some nice views through the eyepiece. However, I decided to see what this telescope is capable of and inserted my ASI224MC. Although thin clouds interfered with the imaging, I can't complain about the results for a setup worth a few hundred dollars.
