we would need 3D capabilities to be able to do that david
re joop views - you obviously havent owned a large aperture f7 or greater planetary scope (and using quality 1.25" ep's) before, i have seen views as good last time joop was south and large/bright in the mid 90's. not very often mind you - certainly with saturn and mars i have seen views as good as any webcam image
a mate and I were discussing this recently and we dont think the webcammers have got the colours perfect yet - but detail yes
and you guys have got to beat hubble yet too

Nice job Middy - cheers for posting :-))) keep em coming
