Mars - May 11th 2003

Hello,

Thanks for the complements on the images. It’s my privilege and pleasure to be part of this forum.

As for Graeme, I think you must feed you 80mm scope some of Popeye’s spinach! :-)

Attached is image from Mars this morning, this time with a C14 as the skies were a bit steadier than they’ve been in the past. Visually Mars showed somewhat less detail, but it was much more pleasing to the eye. I’m hooked!!

Regards,

Angel

Hi Angel,

Wonderful! The polar cap looks nice and large with a nice little "bump" below it.

I look forward to when Mars is approaching twice this apparent size.

Angel,

Another great image of Mars. Most of the features visible can be described by the comments on my May 8, 2003 observation on the forum. Please keep up the outstanding work.
