Hello. I have yet to post any images of mine of Mars for this opposition, so here's my little addition. Unfortunately, my equipment was limited this time around. I wasnt able to image on my personal equipment due to my going to college out of state. This image was taken using the University of Nebraska's 16"LX200GPS and a Philips ToUcam Pro II at about 4:00 AM on Monday morning after my research observing was finished. Unfortunately, this had to be shot through a .63 focal reducer and a flip mirror system (it was too big of a pain in the butt to take off the CCD camera), so the FL it was shot at is 2460 mm. No Barlow was used. I am actually rather impressed with this image due to the amount of extra glass that was in the way and the low f-ratio used. Any how, stack of about 700 frames with Registax 3. Thanks.
Clear Skies,
