I observed the near occultation of the Moon and Mars on Wednesday evening (2004/2/26 UT) with a 5" f/5 achromatic finder scope and an Edmund Scientific Astroscan and 17mm Ploessl from the Naylor Observatory. I also photographed the event, which was featured on Wednesday's Stardate episode (http://www.stardate.org/radio/program.php?f=today - which will be archived after Wednesday), through the 5" using eyepiece projection and a 32mm Brandon from 2:55 to 3:05 UT.
