I'm working with my new observatory in Moscow on the building's rooftop and finally got my first deep space result. Honestly, I expected it to be worse, especially since quite some time has passed since my first astrophotography attempts in 2020, and both my skills and equipment were different back then. But time doesn't stand still—we're moving forward toward new goals and achievements.

Although at that point, I still needed to fix the guiding system, properly install the coma corrector, improve the cooling system to reach lower temperatures, and so on. But this is what's called first light.
