Clear skies tonight!!! Yippee!!
Got the scope out and tried tricking the scope into thinking it was in a different time zone (set back 1 hour), only to find later that I shoud set DST to "Yes".
Had some great views of Saturn. Even went down as low as 9mm.
Tried doing a sky tour, but the scope was thrown off when my JMI focuser hit the base, Grrrrrrrr.
But reset and all seems to be ok. And re-did the sky tour. Looked at Antares, and a double cluster. Very nice. What I really want to look at are some Nebulas and Galaxies!! Next time.
Used my red filter this time for Jupter and that really brought out the detail. My neighbor came over and had a nice view. Much better than the other night.
So, if all is well next time, I'll attach the camera and start doing some imaging again. This time of Jupiter.
Which reminds me, I really need to post what few pictures I have.
