Some images taken during almost full Moon

Rolando,

What optical train did you use to get 1600mm focal length? It does not compute! :C

Very late on this one .... nice work, Rolando, with lots of structure visible within the core and environs!

Some pix from Hawaii - the Big Island

Posted By Anthony Ayiomamitis

Rolando,

I must check to see when the next total solar eclipse will pass though Hawaii so as to have the perfect excuse for the islands.

I must get a taste of those wonderful Hawaiian skies and darkness at some point. Ditto for some celestial gems further south than what is possible from home.

Good to see you back! wink

Aries Maksutov-Cassegrain

Posted By Anthony Ayiomamitis

Hans,

The company is still around and taking orders. I exchanged some emails with them about six months ago. I also contacted the seller you mention but he wants to sell the complete package as is.

The optics and design are the same as the ones used by AP for their limited run of the Mak-Cass. As far as I know, the only difference is the extra figuring by AP once they received the lenses from Aries.

Rolando,

Very sweet result.

I guess testing another RHA before it goes to its new owner? :-)
