- Description: Emission/Reflection Nebula in Sagittarius. One of the "first light"
astrophotos from the club's Celstron C14. This photo was extremely difficult to guide
as the periodic error in the drive system was terrible. This is what drove us to upgrade the
drive system to a Byers gear. A HUGE improvement!
