Well I can certainly take a detour over there and take a look at those coordinates. That's within a few arcseconds of the star HD 247968 (assuming she means the standard J2000.0 epoch on those coordinates), not much else over there though.

Snuffielover User ID: 65532012 Russia 11/28/2014 11:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thank you for another wonderful live cast Mister Astro! Clearing up a bit here and I can see Jupiter, but still no Astro-weather :( If any foreign minister begins to defend to the death a "peace conference," you can be sure his government has already placed its orders for new battleships and aeroplanes. |

The telescope was online and available for use during the initial testing period. I also provided images and video of comet ISON last year with the GLP telescope. While the software to control it remotely continues to be worked on I've been providing live astronomy shows with similar equipment of my own right here. |

[link to h.dropcanvas.com] Well, those are the coordinates, nothing there though. I did a blink comparison with the background stars from the Palomar Sky Survey. Nothing new or unusual is present in my color image that isn't present in the black and while Palomar image. There's a green cosmic ray strike to the right, but that's it. |
