EP13 - Sunday, 2nd August 2020 7:30pm BST - Astro Q&A hosted by SGL Mods & Admins

[Grant 2,941]

Trying something different this week

We are going to be hosting an astro Q&A session with many of the SGL mod and admin team on the panel ready to (try!) and answer any astronomy questions you may have.

Expect tangents, potentially demos and some head scratching

If you have a question or subject matter you would like us to touch on you can let us know in advance or ask us during the meeting live.

We don't know how this will work out, it's a bit of an experiment so please bear with us and let's see how it goes.

Meeting details below:

Hi Grant,

Sounds good, here is one suggestion, would it be possible to provide an update on the IKI  remote imaging project?

Many thanks

Steve

The Virtual Astronomy Club are holding a live watch party for the Splashdown of Dragon scheduled for 7:42 tomorrow. 
I'll try and join you as soon as we've finished.

 

[NewMexico Skies 1]

I'll try to do the Zoom meeting and the Dragon splashdown in separate windows.  See you then!

Sorry that I had to bow out about half way through, I had a visitor turn up.  I'll play catch up on YouTube later...

[Dave 280]

Sorry I didn't make this. It took them longer than expected to get Bob & Doug out of the Dragon capsule.

It was a useful session - and I was able to see Bob and Doug dragged out of the capsule too...

I think it's a useful session to have periodically. I'm not up and running yet with imaging as I'm still waiting for the APO to arrive. I'm sure queries will follow once I'm up and running - if I ever get a clear night; they've been in short supply over recent weeks so I've not really tried out my camera on the HEQ5 properly and it hasn't been clear at all since I got the iOptron SkyGuider
