I feel lucky just getting a clear night these days. CSC prediction of below average seeing are correct 99% of the time. Night of Jan 30 was pleasant though, not too cold and with good transparency despite passing bands of clouds. I had the chance to collect almost 3 sets of RGBs but it wasn't even worth derotating any of the single channels due to their poor quality. So here is a singe RGB. Mostly for training purposes....not much cloud activity these days..

But Mars still culminates around 8pm so why not?

Enjoy it while it lasts!

 

365mm Newt - 5XPM - ASI462MM - Astronomik RGB

I'd say that's quite nice! lots of detail there.

Thanks guys but believe me, it could be a lot better than this....some say the B channel is a good indicator of the quality of the seeing...

Look at this beauty, if I stack more than a few K frames the edges loose definition no matter the sharpening level...
