Hoegaarden Astronomy & Photography
Last night @ 5u55m MET a small but bright streak of light is visible on the Allsky camera. Checking against Iridium flares of “Heavensabove” and with “SkySafari” did not give any satellites near that point.

To watch the whole night, please download the movie below. Lots of activity is going on, including planes but also the telescope making a meridian flip at some point.
NGC2403 in Camelopardalis, image with SharpStar 76EDPH @ F4,4 Nikon D750 ISO 400 17×120″ SGP, PHD2, APP & PSCC (Click for a larger image) only 35 minutes. I imaged this galaxy to find out as a test how large it was (or how tiny!!)
The stars are a bit fuzzy as my automatic focusing did not work, I discovered in the morning why: it was jammed with the rotation know against the dovetail. Obviously, I tried everything apart from fysically checking, I re-installed about everything 😉 No Flats used so a dust bunny is visible here and there.
