Customer Video: NGC 896 and NGC 884 Clusters
  • Details
    Date Taken: 10/21/2011
    Telescope: Orion XT12g GoTo Dobsonian Telescope
    Camera: Watec 902H Ultimate CCD video camera
    Notes: Here is a quick clip of NGC 869 and NGC 884 through my Orion 12 inch GOTO DOB using my Watec 902H Ultimate CCD video camera and a Knight Owl 0.5 Focal Reducer giving a 25 minute field of view down to 13th magnitude depending on spectrum of the star. Also seen is the read out of the KIWI Time Inserter giving the exact time of the video in UT. This was taken at somewhat low altitude and inside the city of Lawrence Kansas. Therefore, it was taken in less than average conditions just outside my house. I will put up some other videos in due time.
