Hi all,

Since I haven't had decent conditions in over 3 weeks to image Mars, I thought I'd share an image of Tycho taken on September 25, 2005.

Meade LX90 8" SCT @ f/25, ToUcam 840 w/IR pass filter, seeing 5-6/10, frames= 300/1200 @ 10fps, 9:06 UT.

Thanks,
Ed Roach

Hi Ed. I'm in the same boat with you as far as Mars goes. Nothin! You got a great LX90. I had an 8" LX200 that never came close to the images you are getting. Nice job.
