Mars


Recommended Posts

Mars - taken last night (4/6/2016) under less than ideal conditions with hazy sky and poor seeing. This is the best shot (so far) out of 11. Mars is already noticeably smaller in appearance since it was in opposition a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately cloud ended the session before the scope could be turned on to Saturn but hopefully tonight will be better.

This image was made from 2000 frames of video.
