Got in a great night imaging with both the Askar and RASA performing nicely

.
I had cleaned the sensor on the OSC on the RASA and was expecting some problems but it behaved thank goodness

.
Just now I closed up ( at 3-00 am ) with ice everywhere.
The roof motor had disengaged ( presumably due to the cold warping the roof) but happily it closed easily with a gentle push.
I must be getting soft as I don't ride the mower down there now but drive my little white car and leave the motor running , to take advantage of the heater, after I have shut things off...so I get to warm up a little .. it is warmer back in the van where it is a toasty 5 degrees.
I can't wait to gather up the data a little later and see just how the images turn out....
