during this short clear sky (after rain) i started with some observations of comets: C/2018 N2 (ASASSN), C/2019 K7 (SMITH), also 2 object mentioned on the PCCP. Both objects could be detected. one ot them … Read more
Between the showers and clouds there was an occasional clearing and I used it to record a spectrum of 14 Lac. Unfortunately, those short periods were too short to take additional spectra.
We have been struggling here with rain and heavy clouds for a long time. This evening I suddenly saw a clear sky and immediately opened the observatory to record some spectra: gam Cas (H-alpha detail), … Read more
During a short period of clear skies, I was able to record a spectrum of 18 Lyr with C11 + LHiResIII spectrograph.
there were clouds that are coming over and high clouds are disturbing, so i decided to skip the comet observations and only try to take some spectra of stars: gam Cas (HeI @6678 Å), V2119 … Read more
comets that i could observe during this evening with clear sky are: 8P, 11P, 215P, 257P, A/2019 U5, C/2017 K2, C/2018 U1, C/2019 K7, C/2019 L3, C/2019 O3, C/2019 U6, C/2020 N1. High resolution spectra … Read more
again a clear night but lower transparancy (more lightpollution effects). i did some comet observations: 8P, 11P, 29P, 58P, 215P, 257P, A/2019 U5, C/2017 B3, C/2017 K2, C/2018 U1, C/2019 K7, C/2019 L3, C/2019 O3, … Read more
comet which are observed during this evening with clear night but moderate transparancy are: 8P, 11P, 29P, 257P, A/2019 U5, C/2017 B3, C/2017 K2, C/2018 U1, C/2019 K7, C/2019 L3, C/2019 Q1, C/2019 T3, C/2019 … Read more
Due to too much wind I could unfortunately not start observations of comets. I can, however, use the C11 and LHiRes-III for high resolution spectroscopy. This setup is in a dome and therefore more resistant … Read more
Observation conditions are not so good, there are regularly high clouds, just after midnight I had to interrupt the observations because of too much cloud cover. According to the comets, I have been able to … Read more
