Using the HiPERCAM imager on the William Herschel Telescope (WHT), astronomers have been able to observe in exquisite detail the eclipse of the central star of the planetary nebula Outters 5 by its binary companion.
HiPERCAM was successfully commissioned on the William Herschel Telescope (WHT) on 17 October 2017 by a team from the Universities of Sheffield, Warwick and the UK Astronomy Technology Centre, Edinburgh. HiPERCAM was designed as a next generation version of ULTRACAM.
