Thought the conditions were going bad and then the sky cleared and the atmosphere settled down a bit. The temp stabilized at 57°F so I focused both the guidescope and main scope, started Sequencer 3 and went to bed. Got up and was pleasently surprised that the temp held steady and the focus was good on all frames. |
