Deep Sky Forum's Objects of the Week
|
|
|
|
The galaxy group USGC U811 was posted as Object of the Week. As the group - according to NED - consists of only 4 galaxies, but more galaxies were noted in the forum post, I decided to create a guide for galaxies near NGC7242.

CSOG Interim Update + new editions
|
|
As I type this, I am virtually to my armpits in pdf's, planfiles and tours. Literally thousands of files to export and update for CSOG's interim update and 9 new editions:
|
|
- Struve-Straka nebulae
- Dorschner-Gürtler nebulae
- Van den Bergh Reflection Nebulae
- Rojkovskij-Kurchakov nebulae
- Bernes Bright nebulae
- Neckel-Staude nebulae
- Peimbert-Bátiz & Peimbert-Costero planetary nebulae
- Merrill Planetary Nebulae
- Herschel Regions
Tomorrow Saturday 20 September, I will take the Clear Skies website offline to upload new and updated content and to update the site.
|
I am not aiming for a specific date & time (it'll be done when it's done), but given my progress I expect the site to be back up this Sunday evening, or soon after.
|
|
This will be a huge update to CSOG, adding many updates and further unique content that cannot be found in any other publication. I am pleased to be able to release it less than a year since publication of CSOG 3.0.
