M42 showed up bright and clear on the camera, after some processing (and help from a redditor) I ended up with this amazing shot.

m110 showed up in the same shot as m31, larger and more diffuse than m32 but (much) less detail when compared to m31

Tried out my new motor drive and got some detailed (for me) photos of the great m31. Also seen are m110 and m32.

Finally saw the moon through the telescope. The Grimaldi crater had tons of detail and looked very 3D. I did not expect to see so many craters.
