That creature has stolen the space modulator...

Having grown up watching Bugs, Daffy, Marvin etc I couldn't resist.

First proper go at Mars this opposition. Unfortunately seeing was average. Still, you can see the south polar cap and north polar hood of clouds as well as some surface details like Syrtis Major Planum.

In my opinion the ZWO ASI 120MC is a great planetary camera. Just wish the chip was bigger. I find the colour is better than with the ASI 294MC Pro.

Hope to get better images over the next month. Fingers crossed for some good seeing.
