While the M51 project still has plenty to do to complete, a new project was started - the Iris Nebula (NGC7023) in broadband. Around eight hours of integration time were logged on the 8th, 10th and 11th June and this will be augmented over the next few clear evenings. Unfortunately in summer in the UK we have only 3 hours of semi-darkness and no astronomical darkness whatsoever.
