Flying over the moon with a Celestron C8

[astroavani]

Flights low over the moon using Celestron telescopes are quite easy to accomplish.
No need to have big opening, enough to have good will!
There are many areas that lend themselves to this, but the south pole region is my favorite because pass grazed in craters Clavius and Moretus is an indescribable feeling.
Of course this only for the telescope is not enough, we need a good camera to record this feat and fortunately my ASI 224 provided by ZWO is great to prove that I am not telling fibs.
Therefore, I invite other colleagues to register their overflights and disseminate to those unbelievers who still insist that the man did not come on the Moon.

Excellent image and the detail is superb. I do love flying over the Moon with my 8se, although the view aint quite up to yours.

We'll happily book again for the next flight!

Really fantastic image and great read

[Aussie Dave]

It's always nice to see what can be achieved with an 8" SCT and those amazing ZWO ASI224 camera's. Those imaging camera's really do perform well.

Fantastic work there Avani.
