Stars on Empire Tech IPC-T5442T-ZE

Gary, I labeled some objects in your 1st pict.
The most notable things you captured, I labeled in red.

• Orion Nebula - a faint glow can be seen around mid star of Orion sword.
• Uranus - about midway between Pleades and the moon.
• Asteroid 4 Vega - near top middle. It is faint, but you got it.

Unfortunately, just missed Andromeda galaxy. Triangulum and Mirach are in frame and I use those to find Andromeda. Got excited going rightward from Mirach, but alas it was off frame. I think you would have picked that up as well had the camera been pointed a bit more in that direction.

It would be interesting to have shots over the next week. That should be enough time to reveal relative motion of 4 Vega.
Those 4KT's are impressive.
Meanwhile I'll refine focus on my little turret.

When is @Arjun going to show up and make a joke about all the Uranus references?

I just might need to add a dedicated sky cam. Even this IPC-T5442T-ZE is fun.
Glimpsed a few meteors this evening. Here is little one in the midst of a time lapse.
