Mars 31/7/2005

We've had a run of very poor seeing the last few weeks associated with overhead jetstream, but it cleared a little bit last night so I had another go at Mars this morning in the frost :-)

Conditions were still marginal, but at least I could make out the polar cap in the video this time :-)

Details:

10" f/6 newtonain, 5x powermate
Lumenera LU075M @ 30fps
Astronomik RGB filters

regards, Anthony
