Nova Per 2020 2020-12-13

Post by Paolo Berardi »

Hi all! Real time observation report from central Italy.

Sky clear (very rare event!), good transparency and seeing, wind calm, temp 1.5° C, humidity 90%. If clouds or fog don't come, I should observe some NIR regions toward h-alpha line. Lhires III and 600 l/mm grating.

Now on the NIR part, O I 8446A

Paolo,
Well done, mate!
Good to see your acquisition set-up with Astroart, including the guiding and the use of the profile function.
Hope the weather holds for you.

Thanks Ken! Luckily, fair (but cold) weather seems to continue here... I hope it's improved for you.

I planned the same observation for today (14 dec). Weather condition are similar.
I'm on the nova that appear brighter than yesterday.
