This is a composition of 55 images taken with a Newton 200mm f10 and CCD SBIG ST-237.
Aligned and stacked with Iris
UCAC4 482-078944 – high proper motion
The first image is from the US Naval Observatory’s archive, the second is a composition of three images of 20 second each, with a Newton Ziel Galazy2 8′ with SBIG ST-247 camera at f/5.
The star has a proper motion in RA of -1.15″ per year, really fast!
