I give a tour of the night sky with live views of the Sculptor Galaxy, The Grus Quartet group of galaxies, and the M22 Globular Cluster.

I'm using my NexDome back yard observatory and Celestron C1100 11-inch telescope fitted with HyperStar and Watec 910BD monochrome video camera.

The telescope and all observatory functions are remotely controlled from inside my house.

I'm using this camera:

The camera has a custom built housing and software:
