MDRS ROBOTIC OBSERVATORY
Robotic Telescope Requested: Montana Learning Center
Objects Viewed: IC 1848, IC 1805, Ceres
Problems Encountered: I’m working now on the final images of all the observed objects using Astronomy Laptop. I encountered a problem with the calibration of the images though. Question: do I need to download calibration files for each observation separately or some observations will have the same files? I’m asking about that in order to save the bandwidth whenever possible.
I also wonder, is it possible to observe comets, like Leonard or Bernardinelli-Bornstein, with requested telescope? I can’t find them via the Skynet search.
