Farewell to Mars 2020
Mars in excellent seeing tonight Dec 01 2020. The best seeing I've had this season. A pity it wasn't at it's closest. It's receding from Earth fast now at only 14.5". The southern hemisphere has a light dusting.
Skywatcher PDS300 12" F5 Newtonian at F15, Svbony SV305, modified NEQ6 Pro.
Captured in sharpcap, stacked in AS!3, processed in PS.
I'll keep on shooting Mars but at the rate it's receding, less and less surface detail will stand out.
