Velocities of objects observed multiple times as a function of setup number. The dashed line indicates the final velocity derived from the summation of all exposures; the dotted lines on either side of this mean indicate the 1σ uncertainty of the final value. Note the generally good agreement: measurements that are discrepant usually have large uncertainties. M94's setup 6 was affected by clouds, which explains its significantly larger error bars.
