Mars, 18th October

Hi guys.

After the lunar eclipse on Monday night, the clouds stayed away for long enough for me to capture some Mars avi's.

Unfortunately the seeing was not good (3/10), and by the time it started to improve, the clouds came at about 12:40.

The avi that produced this image was my best for the night, it also happened to be my last for the night. "Just one more avi" often gives me the best image

This was taken with the 5x powermate, and with the ToUcam pulled out as far as it would go to give a bigger image. I need to make an extension tube.
