Its midnight here on the left coast, seeing fair to poor, P5. I'm trying to stay up for Saturn. Collimated the C8 about 10 times waiting for the seeing to get better and decided to take some lunar AVI's and actually got a decent one after numerous nights of poor seeing!!......Hey, gotta run, the 3rd pot of coffee is done!! C8@F20, Toucam Pro, 114 frames of 600. See Ya,,Vince

Beautiful! You sure captured more detail than I was able to get in my recent posting of Petavius. I have had terrible conditions for weeks now. sad It looks like your patience payed off.... Nicely done!

Vince,

Great images of Atlas and Petavius. Lots of detail over the crater floors and surrounding regions. Thank you for sharing them with us all.

Carlos
