Mars 9th May - good seeing

SPX350 F41.5, PGRFlea3, Baader RGB filters.

Seeing was predicted to be good but JetStream still strong but stars did not twinkle much and Mars started off looking pretty good with fair seeing a bit variable but Olympus Mons was visible in all filters.

An hour and a half later Mars looked very calm close to good seeing at about 21hrs local time, this carried on till Mars culminated. I took lots of subs and combined best of them. Temperature was quite warm for a change. Seeing predicted to be good on 10th June - tonight, so here hoping.

Regards, John.

Watching it rotate is mesmerising I think I can see some pretty large tracks left by the rovers too!

Excellent work John. Missed the boat this apparition I think. Nice to see high quality images getting about though.
