OT:

Astrophotography news after a lot of inactive time!
Finally got a clear night, a dim moon, rising late at night and a perfect target: Pleiades (aka "seven sisters").

I got a new power distribution box, a new tack sharp reducer by the infamous company Starizona, a new 120W power supply, all hooked up on a 1000mm newtonian telescope and just started the session. After collimation and debugging a lot of issues, because the power supply went low voltage when the load exceeded 20W, i had things running and freezing fingers. Took me a while to type this 

The first few frames look very promising (see below), but the guiding could be better. I have to fine tune the mount mechanics to the low temperatures, but this would have been too much in the cold darkness.



See the final stack in a few days.
