SWAG July Extra Challenge - Pluto
SWAGs, Pluto is back and looks like it's ready to be catched 📸 I wanted to catch it last year but it was gone. Now is back. So why not an extra challenge for July. Try to catch it, i think is best to do it in Stargazing Mode with the stars (Solar System Mode is out of the question for the little fella). How is it in your region ? This is the photo that hyped me last year and i liked the technique used:

July Monthly Challenge - Seestar
1. Messier 20: Trifid Nebula - minimum targeted integration time: 10 Hours - current integration time: 2.67 Hours **current integration time will be updated here** 2. IC 4592 - The Blue Horsehead Nebula - minimum targeted integration time: 10 Hours - current integration time: 0.58 Hours ** current integration time will be updated here ** ** For this target, as Harold Soto sugested, don't use the LP filter on it **

First idea for a group task / challenge
I saw this on a Facebook post: some guys formed a group (only Seestar users). It's a team work, everyone contributes for a monthly task on a target and everybody uploads on a Google Drive their linear files (not the stack ones, the individual ones, 10 sec, 20 sec, etc). From there they choose an integration limit to be reached, like 50H integration. The output of this is incredible, jaw dropping. So SWAGs, what do you think about it? Can we do it also? What to do, my ideas: - establish a secure Google Drive just for us - establish a monthy target - establish an integration time, for starters let say between 10 to max 15 H integration data. But remember, the more the better is the output - team uploads their linear files captured in individual folder - every member is free to get all the data posted, stack everything, postprocess it and post it under SWAG monthly challenge on their timeline What do you think? Please add ideas or improvements to this and please think if this is a good idea for a team work.

An idea for @Apollo and other 3D printers.It works exactly like the seestar normal mode,except that it's LITTLE and makes the seestar lower.I'd find it cool to try imaging with it. Link to 3D print https://cults3d.com/:1703871 Image1
