A night of No DSO's

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

The Moon is too bright for DSO's, my Toucams Amp Glow is wrecking DSO's, the seeing is dancing, and wind is blowing the scope around.

What else is there to do on a night like this????

Attempt some Solar System stuff! That's what.

1. Moon - ED80, Toucam, Eyepiece Projection using Pentax XW7, 1000 frames.
2. Jupiter and her Moons - ED80, Toucam, 10 frames captured in Desire then stacked.

Good point Gaz! But Joop is a 'she'. As in all of nature.

Joop is the largest and most dominant Planet. Think of Spiders as an example . . . who is the dominant? who is the biggest? Who has the nice colours? Male or Female
