01: Background Fill Color - Items that I have previously images will have a fill color of grey, Images not yet imaged will have a white background color. 02: Object Name and catalog number – Common name long with one of the reference catalog numbers associated with this object. 03: Config – The optimal configuration to image this object, and the configuration the provided image is based on based on what hardware I own. Configuration will either be the Celestron C-11 Primary focus (with focal reducer) or C-11 with HyperStar. 04: Object Image – If this is an object I have already imaged, the thumbnail is my photo. It is hyperlinked to my website, so selecting the image should open a larger image in your browser. If the object has not yet been imaged by me the image displayed is for the identified configuration as obtained from http://www.telescopious.com. 05: Close Star – A fairly bright star close to the target that can be used to check focus and sync the telescope before the imaging session begins. 06: Catalog Objects – List of objects that should appear in the field of view. When possible they are hyperlinked to http://www.telescopious.com where more information can be obtained. 07: Imaging Window – Ideally the time the object is 45° above the horizon. Southern objects with negative DEC that do not peak above 45° are indicated with a *. Imaging window for these objects may be based on 30° or even 25° above horizon for the imaging window. 08: Transit – When the object is at the highest point in the sky for the night. For equatorial mounts this is when the meridian flip will occur. Also included is the highest point above the horizon in degrees when transit occurs. 2020_ProspectiveObjects - September 17.docx Page 1 of 51 Last Saved: 2020-09-07
