My spare laptop is all setup an working so the old laptop sit out in the cold while I sit indoors with the new one in the warm :). I managed to get another three panes added to the Makarians Chain area.
These three panes are all 10 x 5minutes through the Vixen 140mm (really must finish writing the review!), with the exception of the final pane (top most image) which is 4 x 5minutes.
Uploading the image to astrometry.net resolves 21 galaxies – but there are many more. I count at least 54 galaxies. Just need to fill in the gaps and get more data.
To give an idea of scale, the mosaic below is 2 degrees 40 minutes high – that about 5 and a half full moons high.
Here is the image 50% it’s original size (once you click on it).
And this is the resolved image from astrometry.net.
