(CZ Ori attempt - failed to find star(s) )
Astrometric Monitoring - Nearby Stars - none
- Evening session (2.0 hrs duration). - Session operated under semi-automated control, with remote monitoring from indoors computer. - Ambient Temperature: +4.5 deg C (minimum) - CCD operation -30 degC (at 85% average cooling). - main objectives of the session were to acquire images of selected project stars for ongoing photometric and astrometric analysis. -
