BTW, your "Achernar" is actually Canopos, Achernar is the bright one above the SMC in your picture.

Thanks for that Steffen! Once i get back to my computer I'll edit it

When I stepped out to go to work tonight I noticed a few clear patches but it wasn't great, we've not had a clear break in the weather for a while now. Good time to catch up on Astronomy News and old photographs

Crago Observatory is open to all visitors this weekend (weather permitting). I hope it's clear enough so I can go and enjoy a night out before the end of the year and the world
