Update.11-09-06..With the assistance of 2 local club (ATMoB)
Members John B and Steve B,
This has been determined that my scope and camera doesn't
like to focus
the Infrared light as nicely as the RGB...:)
It is a mag 10 star that is emitting strongly in the infrared and I was not
using my UV/IR cut filter while imaging the comet..I cropped the larger view ....take a look at the top right
corner...
Once I processed this one frame into color This is what I have...
Unknown Target is very Bright ...this frame is from
Twilight 5:29pm est.
This is the target at pixel scale
Still nice to know I may of discovered something, better luck next time, Time to continue with the videos...:)
