No clouds here Stephen and Dennis,I had the camera on the tripod and played around with the settings and took some test images before the pass over.

But did not capture the Tiangong-1,at +2.7 mag must not have been bright enough in the Twilight.Still was a nice view,Jupiter is just about to set.

Been a good conjunction,many lovely images by many IIS members,from along the Eastern coast of Australia.Its been a learning curve on using gear and equipment all over again.Must go onto "Heavens above" more often too.

Was there a ISS pass tonight-saw a bright object in N.E at 6.02 pm.

Hope you and family can come up for a DSO night /camp in the future Stephen.
