Hi Dennis,
Magnitude 10 in 30 sec using a 15 mm aperture is still pretty amazing isn't it? You need ~50x more photons to catch Pluto then. Clyde would probably sacrifice a body part for today's technology
.
One nice thing about Pluto, he doesn't move very fast & now you know where he's hiding. After you get some sleep, he better be careful.
I think Makemake is within range of your system too BTW.
