Details:
As part of my quest to image all of the planets in the solar system , including Pluto, I've been taking a series of images to map the movement of Pluto. You can easily see Pluto's movement over two days as it moves relative to the background star field. I hope to get
10 or 20 mappings over the next month. An Explore Scientific ED127 telescope and
an SBIG STX2000XM with a .8X
focal reducer was used which
creates a field of view of 53.44' x 40.08".
