hmmmmm, i haven't heard too much from ice!


maybe someone else is hogging the computer!!!!

any suggestions for kate on how to image mars.
  1. The item called a powermate 5x is for sticking in the ground so you can stand on it to reach the eyepiece. A 31mm nagler also is very good for this.
  2. remove one wheel of the focusser and then place the toucam fits onto the exposed bit of metal. push it on real tight!!
  3. don't worry about the tube, remove it and then line up mars with the mirror, place a piece of paper over the mirror and get the kids to trace the image of mars!!
