Hi John

My scope is a custom made 10" x f6 newt on a heavily cut and shut dob base to allow for a Dob Driver II.

The wart is the actual moon ganymede. As we are still a few months before opposition, the moon shadow preceded the moon itself by a few hours. Which is probably the dark spot you saw earlier.

I hope we have a Tassie catchup soon again at Ross and we can catch up
