Friday Again

Well it's Friday again and potential time to use my scope.
So what are the options.
1. There is allegedly a pretty big moon to wash out the sky. I wouldn't know as the moon hasn't shown itself for over a week due to that grey diffususion filter outside.
2. reprocess some old images.
3. Go to the pub.
4. Sit infront of the fire and hope that it is clear on Tuesday for the eclipse.
5. All of the above. Ye Ha

Hi Terry, It's 50/50 down here at the moment so I may get a chance for some imaging tonight. I'll have to use the Ha filter though.

Cheers

At the moment the sky in Melbourne is looking cloudy and wet for Tuesday night. I would gladly swap the next four nights of clear skies (complete with Moon) for a good night on Tuesday...I think most of us would!

My last and only lunar eclipse was back in the 70's.
