Hey Hivers,

About a month ago I already posted an image of Comet C/2019 Y4 (ATLAS). Last weekend I made a second try on it as the comet came already closer to heart. Its closest approach is predicted for mid/end of May. Then I will make another imaging session and edit the final images.
The image is a stack of 16 pictures aligned on the stars to show the movement of the comet itself. Don't look at all those hot pixels and satellite trails. Also, I have lost some images due to tracking issues. I hope to get this all fixed in my next session end of this week.
With this post, I will also test a new beta version of the @actifit app.
