Equipment Details:

Celestron Evolution 9.25in telescope with Celestron Skyris 236C eyepiece camera on Goto Mount.

Exposure: 981.9104ms
Gain: 264

Image Details:

Meteor passing Orion Nebula: I was taking a long exposure of the Orion Nebula when I noticed something dart by in the image, and upon processing I noticed in the 300th frame there was what appeared to be a meteor streaking by. So, I took an image of the 300th frame to show the object and changed the image to black and white so that the object would be more visible as it was very dim and hard to notice in the original image and the video you can almost never spot it since the object is moving so fast.
