Aling the telescope to Vega. (~Mode on the controller)

Microfocuser used to fine focus.

Alpha Persei Cluster (Cr 39, Mel 20)
We chose our cluster as the Alpha Persei cluster.
To focus on the cluster we chose a nearby bright star Mirphak.
We used it to correct our ofocusing and we synched Stellarium wityh the telescope.
We choice a patch of the cluster (HIP16001) and took 10 vimages of 10 second exposures. ( x binning set to 1, x anmd y originally inverted, this was reversed)
5 bias frames and dark frames of 5 1min exposure.
Took 3 40 s red.
Took 3 40-s gtreen.
Took 3 90 s blue.
Move to a different patch (around RA:3h29min29s, DEC:49deg44'16")
