Pallas

I used my SeeStar S30 to verify that the position of Pallas as predicted by my Solar System Positions page is indeed accurate. Here are the finder chart and part of a single frame from the S30 at the given time. At the bottom is part of the complete stack of 309 10s frames showing how Pallas moved in just over 76 minutes.

The short trail shows how far Pallas moved in 72 minutes.
(If the bright stars look a bit odd it's because this was done through a double-glazed window - angled up of course! Not best practice but it achieved what I wanted.)
