While imaging NGC 891 on the evening of Dec. 3rd, a stellar-like object
moved in front of the core of NGC 891. Twelve images were taken in all
and these 3 images are to show the object (middle frame) and the before
and after frames. Object does not appear in any other image. The frame
showing the object was taken at 8:04pm MST (03:04UT 04-DEC-2005). All
images are 8 minute single exposures with a 10 second interval.
Telescope - TEC APO 140 (5.5 in./980mm f/7 refractor), no reducer or
flattener. No darks or flats. Baader UV/IR filter. Camera - Canon Rebel
XT, IR filter removed.
