Not ANOTHER ISS closeup!

[DeanWatson]

Hi all, I think my best ISS yet - I was fiddling around getting my focus, exposure and stuff right on Jupiter and had happened to mention to next door it was going over head - still messing about and I heard them going 'there it goes'! I have never moved so fast.

Thanks Tmark btw for the wcctrl link - Brilliant! I used 1/1500 but could proably have gone 1/2000.

This is with a 10" dob and SPC900 cam.

Hope you like it - now just got to upload my NGC 6992 veil and 6888 Crecent and thats me done for the night!

Good shooting there, after seeing how fast that thing goes across the heavens you've done a great job of catching it.

A nice crisp image, nice shooting.

Thanks so much guys, been a super astronomical year for me, imaged Neptune for the first time and reasonably successfully caught this - Just need to tick off Pluto now!

A clever piece of imagery there Dean.

You did good to pluck such a clean image from an object at such speed. Keeping the camera on track cannot be easy.

It was especially hard for this one. I'd mentioned to next door when it was due to go over and in the mean time was doing all my prep - It was only when they shouted 'there it goes' that I twigged it was overhead and had not been tracked from the far west where i normally start - i'd literally just finished my exposure/focus settings and have never moved so fast!
