Hi,

Thanks for the comments.
The image is a bit deceptive, the strike was 1.6 kms away. I timed it off the video.
Yeh, I don't know whether a fibre glass dome would be be any protection? I suppose someone on this forum would know. As for my dome, it's all metal and would imagine it would damage the scope and sundry items if it were hit.
Fortunately my power source for the observatory can be unplugged in my garage.

Cheers,

Justin.
