ASTRO: M27...again
I didn't see my first post so here it is again. Here is my first light deep
sky image with my new (for me) Canon XTi. I hope to get it modified fairly soon. This image was through my C-11 @ f/6. 2 x 30sec @ 1600asa + 2 x 30sec @ 800asa. Sorry for the repeat post. Joe |

Joe You're first try did come through here and I replied, so did another fellow asking about an asteroid like trail in the "lower left corner" but I can't see what he's looking at. Only an NEO would trail enough to easily see in 2 minutes at that scale and I see no trail anyway. Oddly that thread ended up attached to another thread on M27 as if you answered your own comment to that person's M27 post, so was weeks out of sync even though it is supposed to list them in date order. The replies then went there as well. Weird. If I sorted by thread then resorted by date all was correctly listed but each time I open the email program it resorts it back where it don't belong. First time I've seen that bug and I've used this program without update for many years now. Weird. This repost went where it belonged. Anyway here's what I said. Looks a lot like the visual view without filters in my 10" if you ignore the red parts. It will be interesting to see what the difference is after modification.

Here is the trail. Between 11:45pm on the 14th to 1am on the 15th. Anybody
know of anything flying by m27? Joe "Rick Johnson" wrote in message ... J McBride wrote: I didn't see my first post so here it is again.

Well I just checked the originals and it flies right across the whole frame.
I'll try and process to show it. Joe "Rick Johnson" wrote in message ... J McBride wrote: I didn't see my first post so here it is again.

In 30 second frames, it has to be space junk to move the entire field.
It just tumbled in a brighter way at that one spot. A normal belt asteroid would be starlike at 30" and an NEO would give no more than seen in the frame you posted. Minor planet checker shows nothing. Without knowing the exact time of the shot I could be missing something that fast but if it were that fast and known we'd be hearing about it as it would have to be an NEO and a very near one. I get really faint junk like that on virtually every frame. If it doesn't go across anything but field stars, I burn them out with the burn tool with a fuzzy edge set very low, 5% and do it several times. Brighter ones have to be cloned out or left. They appear in about one in every three frames. A pain to say the least. One advantage of shooting through all the gunk of late is it dims these guys to where I don't see nearly as many. It also gets rid of all the faint stars and fuzzies as well so not a good trade. Rick J McBride wrote: Well I just checked the originals and it flies right across the whole frame.

Hi Rick, The info on the file says it was taken July 14 between 11:04 and
11:06 pm, I checked this out and the times were within a minute of actual. So do you find anything with a name or number in that area at the time? Joe "Rick Johnson" wrote in message ...

Since it goes completely across the field it has to be space junk as not
even a very close NEO would cross a that field in 30 seconds. I did discover you are in the Eastern time zone. I'd mistakenly put you in central. Astro times should always be in UTC. As that makes the date July 15th not 14th and the time a bit after 3:00. So I used 17.13 for the date and turned up nothing within 20 minutes of M27 down to 20th magnitude. http://scully.harvard.edu/~cgi/CheckMP If you want to try other conditions but that has to be space junk. I have a sort of dim night with thick haze so am trying to get something. First frame as a bright piece of space junk right through the very center of the object. Space junk is driving me nuts.

I had ot turn my monitor bright up all the way to see it, and then it was still faint. Didn't feel like firing up the image editing software.
