Photos - 1
I made it back from Coona in 1 piece yesterday. Despite the rain, it seemed an easier trip coming back via Mudgee.
Here are some photos from Wednesday
I'm sure you are all familiar with the Solar System model based on Siding Springs - the first pic is Jupiter on the way in from Coona.
The second image shows the observatory from the drive in - the recovery from the fires is certainly ongoing.
The next few images show Brad and Pete getting on with the installation job.
Photos 6 and 7 illustrates the use of a CO2 "gun" to clean the primary - I don't think the pictures do it justice
The last photo lets you see the iTelescope building in situ - right next to the tennis court with some of the ANU gear - including the Sky Mapper - in the background
More to come
Pete
