Good Thursday morning. Weather improved yesterday evening so was able to set up the s50. Set the telescope to see #NGC281 #ThePacmanNebula again. These images are made up of 672 frames at 20 second duration exposures - 3 hours and 43 minutes total. It is a bit better than a 1 hour 32 minutes from an earlier observation, but never as details as the 46 1/2 minute duration observation with the onboard LP filter. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Continuing with the Moon and Sky Light Filter vs No Filter vs LP Filter, still using #NGC281 #ThePacmanNebula as our subject, processed images below. Places of images in my opinion - 1st - LP Filter, 2nd - Moon and Skylight Filter, 3rd -No Filter. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Another test for the Moon and Skylight Filter vs No Filter vs LP Onboard filter on the s50. Using #NGC281 #ThePacmanNebula as the target. All images roughly the same duration. No question the onboard LP filter gets the most details. All these images are unprocessed. Will share the processed images as well. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

When you are imagining nebulas the s50 normally has the Light Pollution (LP) filter on. I wondered what the results would be with it off. Here is observations of #NGC281 #ThePacmanNebula with and without the LP filter. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Next of the planned observation, went back to #NGC281 #ThePacmanNebula. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur
