Tonight I'm taking a few minutes to do a star collimation on the 8" RC. This is part of my nightly routine, and we are starting from the raw laser collimation with the Hotech Advanced SC Collimator.
We will compare 'pretty good' collimation to 'a little better' collimation by doing an auto focus routine on both with NINA Hocus Focus. Then we will have a look at some asteroids and see what our limit of detection in my Bortle 3 Sky (New Moon) turns out to be.
