Saturn

Posted By Paul Maxson

Here is a shot I made of saturn last night. I finally got a combination of good seeing and time to get out. I think it may be my best Saturn yet.

Here is an image I took of Saturn a couple of days ago. I guess the cloud-god found out because it's been cloudy since... sad

Well, I think I'm beginning to get the hang of imaging Jupiter. Now I just need for seeing to settle down...**chuckle**

Here is Jupiter from this morning with the C8 and Toucam. Seeing was in and out, so I had to reduce the image size slightly during processing.

Here are links to last night's Saturn and today's Jupiter. I think that dark spot near the GRS has stalled a bit and maybe gotten darker. Anyone else see that?

Twenty minutes after I shot Jupiter I got totally clouded in. Hope it clears for Mars tonight. BTW, I did a high power tweak on collumination on the C8 and think that helped.

Wheely Bars

Posted By Paul Maxson

I'm thinking about getting a set of these for my C11. Anyone have comments about these one way or the other? I'm also trying to find a sturdy wheeled cart to carry a laptop, monitor and all the astro-goodies we seem to need to enjoy the hobby. What has others done?

Thanks!!
