Objects Session Notes
C/2006 M4 (Swan) - Comet M31 - Extragalactic Nova: M31 2006 14 UGC 14 - Spiral Galaxy & Supernova 2006sr C/2006 L1 (Garradd) - Comet PLN 164+31.1 - Planetary Nebula ("Headphones Nebula") IC 405 - Flaming Star Nebula NGC 1491 - Nebula NGC 1514 - Planetary Nebula (Crystal Ball Nebula) Astrometric & Photometric Monitoring
- HD 5501/5513 (eclipsing variables)
- SS Cyg (dwarf novae)
- BL Lac (BL Lac blazer)
- U And, W And (mira variables)
- Z And, T Tau (variable)
- Teegarden's Star, 61 Cyg (Nearby Stars)
- 6.6 hr session, largely operated under automated control - CCD operation of -25 degC (at 66% average cooling). . - main objective was to acquire additional frames to extend a large scale image mosaic of M31 collected during previous session, along with acquisition of images as part of variable star monitoring. - - More Notes -
