Chris16373 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Beautiful! Well done, I like those daytime moonpics....Can one take these pictures from other planets as well or doesthe sun block any vision you get (or burns away the lens or eyes...)Seeing that we have a couple of early planet-rises, I just wondered...

Chris16373 Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Did something crazy last night, set the alarm at 4.45 (UK 3.45) and actually wanted to look east for the "Rise of the Planets" Of course I checked Stellarium for the time of good viewing frommy backyard, but forgot one thing : already way too light....So I took my bins and suddenly I saw something and thought it was a distant plane or something, but realised it didn't move...Checked again against Stellarium and watched again with thebins and it hit me : that must have been Jupiter. Tried to find it with the scope, but pointing at something you cannot see, even with glasses on, is very difficult, especially when everything wasalready a bright white in the FOV But unless I was wrong it must have been my first sightingof Jupiter....

jgs001 Posted June 4, 2011 Author Share Posted June 4, 2011 Thanks Chris, and you can, but... be very careful that you're not trying to look at something too near the sun, you really don't want to be pointing your bins or scope at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris16373 Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Yes I know, once there was too many "yellow light" coming in I stopped looking with the bins or scope!!! Next time though I will keep my camera handy!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
