Details:
I missed my polar alignment a little bit because one eye was preoccupied keeping tabs on an approaching cloud bank. So when I layered all of the 30-second frames together I ended up with Morse code - dots (stars) and dashes (the asteroid). I don't know what the secret message means. To round things out I added a few star spikes to make the Beehive Cluster stand out.
