Mars occultation 2022 Dec 8

Really nice shot. Credit for staying up.

@spaceman_spiff I set my alarm for 4am. Had to put on lots of layers and fight with frost on the finderscope! Worth it though.

Much better than I got for first contact, as the seeing deteriorated rapidly in the last half hour!

Nice result!

You should post the video of the occultation...

Tried this morning but it would not upload. I'll try again later today
