I got me self a Quasar (Q2237-0607) mag 18.3 with Redshift z=4.55
#3
Thanks Greg, the riches in SkyTools 4 Imaging continue to astound me and I have only just scraped the surface - thank you for such a powerful tool. Smile 

Continuing with the program, I managed to track down another couple of Quasars:

BR 2248-1242
R.A. 22h51m18.1s Dec.: -12°27'03" (2000) in Aquarius
Magnitude: 18.50 R
Redshift (z): 4.15
Light Time: 12.0 Gyr
 
BRI J0113-2803
R.A. 01h13m44.4s Dec.: -28°03'18" (2000) in Sculptor
Magnitude: 18.70 R
Redshift (z): 4.30
Light Time: 12.0 Gyr

There is another one that “got away”; Q0111-0028 at mag 18.7 “should” have been captured at the top-middle of frame as shown in the SkyTools 4 Imaging Overlay, but it did not register. If I get another opportunity, I might try for Q0111-0028 again, but using an IR642 Filter.

Q0111-0028
R.A. 01h13m52.5s Dec.: -28°14'08" (2000) in Sculptor
Magnitude: 18.70 
Redshift (z): 4.30
Light Time: 12.0 Gyr

Tak Mewlon 210 F11.5 with Tak x0.8 RF.
ASI 294 MM Pro camera

Cheers
