Just excellent Mike and the progress has been boggling.

And that cooled camera is so..... Back to the future cool!! Mcfly!!!
I have access to liquid nitrogen at work, maybe I should really cool my old home modded 450d......!!!! (Not!)

Glad you enjoyed the Back to the Future comparison Graham, pretty amazing huh?

and yes it
is pretty cool that I have been doing astro pursuits with Attila for well over 30 years now. We met in the school library of Dickson College in Canberra when I was in Yr11, it was the first week of school and I was a new kid and knew no one. I had taken a years worth of US Astronomy mags from the shelf and was quietly sitting flipping through them when Attila came in, noticed them missing from the shelf and, like me, thinking he was the only astro nerd in the school, his eye's lit up and he thought Ooooh! they are never missing, who has'em??, he looked around the library and saw me, came over and said "Hi I am Attila"...I thought he was joking

, "what? Who?" I said, "I am Attila, as in the Hun" he replied, we were inseparable from then on and the rest is history as they say

I've got some taken a couple of years after that in 86 but I don't think I'll be around to do the comparison shot next time the target comes around in 2061, I'd be 107
