Hi Steve
Well done and top marks for persevering despite the local conditions. We were clouded out in Brisbane so I didn’t get an opportunity to image this event. I almost fell off my chair when I saw your results as was ready to throw out all my Barlow’s, PowerMates and Extenders!
I compared your image to SkyTools and if my interpretation is correct, I think that you may have your 2nd (cropped) image “upside down” compared to the SNP inset?
What put me onto it was the separation between the moons – they didn’t look quite right. So, I took the liberty of comparing your image to SkyTools and annotating it with what I thought were the moons, reference stars and an “asterism” in an attempt to get the correct orientation.
You picked up on this yourself in terms of Miranda’s position discrepancy – truly these types of images are quite difficult to interpret!
What do you think?
Cheers
Dennis
