New Data Set

[Tom Droege <tdroege@veriomail.com>]

Last night I took a run where I followed the sky as long as I could.  The 
plan was one dark followed by nine 50 second exposures.  The 9 exposures 
cover 20+ minutes.  It was as good a night as I get here.  The result fills 
4 CDs.  There are 16 10 exposure sets in two filters.  2.56 GBytes in total.

I hope some of you will ask for this data set, which I am calling Disk Set 
16.  The fits headers are close enough to get you on the image.  The 
program did not change the .fts header during the nine exposures so it is 
off by 20 minutes or so by the last one.

There are 16 different fields in this set.  This should be enough to make a 
good flat.

The last exposure in the set contains a N-S satellite track that is going 
almost perfectly N-S.  It is just one pixel off across the frame.  At first 
I though it had to be some sort of electronic artifact.

Those of you who want to practice looking for planets should ask for this 
data set.  ;^)
