<egg|laptop|egg> cat barfed on my bed this morning https://twitter.com/bunnymaid/status/1244885817618624518
<kmath> <bunnymaid> @whitequark What about the "secret gero" ⏎ When you hear the cat having a barf... ⏎ ⏎ But can't find anything...
<egg|laptop|egg> thankfully it barfed on the smaller cover that it generally stays on so i can wash that while the bed remains usable

<egg|laptop|egg> iximeow: now pointing to α Aur, hopefully this is bright enough for me to focus
<egg|laptop|egg> otherwise we are going to need to acqure some new stars
<egg|laptop|egg> aaargh it has vanished behind a roof
<egg|laptop|egg> OK sirius then
<raptop> ...was the charioteer so drunk that he ran into a house?
<egg|laptop|egg> but sirius is getting treed
<egg|laptop|egg> looks like my focus from last time wasn't that bad actually
<egg|laptop|egg> raptop: might the patterns on those photos I linked earlier just be airy disks?
<egg|laptop|egg> or are they too chonk
<raptop> egg|laptop|egg: depends on which patterns. I saw some forbidden donuts?
<raptop> uh, relink?
<egg|laptop|egg> raptop: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ns9owJ9VRNmKmcqi9 2nd (RGB pixel range) and last image (B pixel range)
<egg|laptop|egg> note in the B channel very clear concentric rings on the brighter star
<egg|laptop|egg> OK I guess focus star is now arcturus
<raptop> Yeah, those look like airy rings
<egg|laptop|egg> (esp. since the VC200L has a pretty massive central obstruction
<egg|laptop|egg> )
<egg|laptop|egg> aaaaaargh the wind keeps shaking the scope
<raptop> If we remove the atmosphere, this problem will go away
<iximeow> verboten donut

<egg|laptop|egg> I feel like I lose finder/main collimation every time I move the scope
Guest9990 is now known as raptop
<raptop> I mean, standard advice is to check it at the start of the night
<egg|laptop|egg> I did, then repointed across the sky and I can't find a thing
<egg|laptop|egg> and finding using smolfield is not really practical
<raptop> aaaa
<egg|laptop|egg> redid the collimation on arcturus, repointed to somewhere in UMa, it is decollimated again
<egg|laptop|egg> OK but less so this time
<egg|laptop|egg> smolfield being smol probably does not help here
<egg|laptop|egg> since very minor collimation variations will throw things out of field
<egg|laptop|egg> i think i have reach ede the location of m51
<egg|laptop|egg> wait no nevermind
* raptop hears rain, and assumes that the local telescope will not be used
