Hi Mike
What a lovely birthday present you gave to yourself! Top stuff!
A very impressive image scale for such a relatively low target. Nice separation between the rings and planetary disc too. I read your notes about cooling the mirror to 0.5 deg C of ambient, in contrast to my efforts of last night/this morning, where I was forced to have the dew heaters running as dew was forming on the OTA and I was concerned about the corrector dewing over. Oh the challenges of a hot and humid Brisbane in the summer months!
Cheers
Dennis
