Neptune

Hi all,

Here is an image of the 8th planet (how can a former Lowell employee not say Pluto isn't a planet...hehe). Shot at prime focus on the Mewlon 250 and resized 2x. Nothing much to see, but it goes to show just how tiny this planet looks from earth. Also, an image of Neptune/Triton from the same evening.

Now, back to the fabulous lunar images!!

Very nice Paul. I have yet to try Neptune and have only tried Uranus once! I should have given them both a try the past couple of months, maybe it's still not too late.
