International Space Station and deployed canadarm2 (19/05/24)


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Another ISS pass at 60 degrees last night. I managed a few good frames despite the so and so seeing. I need to find the time to put the whole capture in an animation, but for now some of the best frames.

Apart from the several modules, I seem to have got the canadarm2 as well! 12" Flextube Goto, asi462mm, IR pass filter, 2.5x televue powermate. Manual tracking.

Once again, great shots. Did you make any progress on your automatic tracking plan?

Almost there. My antivirus is killing the connection between the mount and tracking software. I just need to turn it off and try.

I still don't know how you manage to get these shots, they are just amazing. You have not done a You tube video by any chance?😏

Thanks. I am really trying on getting the tracking to work. No YouTube but happy to make a more detailed post on setting up, capture and processing at some point.

 

Will you keep the goto on your new 16" setup? If I get it to work, I am happy to share how I did it.
