Great "seeing"


Recommended Posts

Had unbelievably good seeing last night. No wind, clear skies, very little haze.

Near perfect difraction patterns on stars at high mags.

Saturn was spectacular in my 4" 'frac at X184 and even at X230

Bands on the planet, Cassini, different shades in the ring system and ring shadow.

Reckon I could see 4 moons.

Also did some "doubles" and a few "globs".

Best night for months:hello2:

I'll second that, finally got to try my 5mm hype ... Saturn was awesome!

It's looking pretty good tonight too :(

Unfortunately started clouding over by 10pm here, and now c. 90% cover - think I'll have to give it a miss (supposed to clear later...) as I have an early start tomorrow.
