Hello All,
I woke up at 2:30 AM and got everything ready. CSC predicted excellent seeing. I first observed with the binoviewer plus 2.1X Barcon and 12mm Monocentrics. The view was absolutley
amazing. Seeing was indeed very good. The image was very sharp. Io was to one side with its inky black shadow beautifully projected upon the disk. Detail was superb. Of course I then got
the Skynyx camera out and started imaging. here is an early image FYI. By the tme
I finished the mosquitoes were so thick I could hardly see the laptop screen!!
