Exoplanet HAT-P-7b in Cygnus 7 mmag depth Dear friends, Last night I was blessed with very good transparency as well as good seeing which was a godsend, for I sat down to pursue the transit for exoplanet HAT-P-7b in Cygnus and whose depth is a meagre 7 mmag.
With a magnitude of The dynamic duo, my AP and APGTO, came through once again in a most impressive fashion and in spite of the fact that the five-hr session started with my target below 40d. This result is somewhat of a letdown in the sense that my next target in a few days will be for a target with a 10 mmag depth and which should be a relative breeze. Clear skies!
