 News: Lunar/ Mars event

News

After a cloudy and cold morning the dome team did witness the Lunar/Mars bypass.

Through small clear patches of the low thick cloud the event was seen for short intervals through high wispy cloud.




The above image was taken using an Astrovid CCD camera in the 16" Meade on the GOTO Mount. It was captured at 03:59:05 on 24/12/2007.



This image was taken with the same camera, but using the Takahashi refractor that is affixed to the Meade 'scope on the GOTO mount. The time that this image was captured was 04:15:09.
