Steve - It sounds like your remote setup is working well. It gives me the incentive to do the same. Mike Sherick made similar suggestions to me. I just need...
I've posted an animation (18 frames X 300sec.) of comet Lulin from last night. Taken through the 80ED and Televue .8x reducer. Be advised that the files are...

Very well done, Steve. Free program irfanview will handle gif files, and has a resize function. That might do it for you. http://www.irfanview.net/ Chuck...
Thanks Chuck. I'll check out irfanview. I downloaded a copy of Ulead's gif animator and got the color version down to 3 meg. SS ... Very well done, Steve. ...
Thanks Dave. Yep, images gathered from the house. Try as I might, I couldn't get the ion tail with my setup working at about f/6. I may have to swap the...
According to Dave's most excellent comet talk (last Friday), the ion tail might be tough to see for a few days as it swings around behind the comet.. Most of...
That is where I bought mine. They are in Canada, so delivery was delayed slightly. It took about 8 days to get it. The quality is good and the mask works...
Here's a great deal on a CCD camera I used for auto-guiding. I have upgraded to the monochrome version. Works perfectly but looks kind of funky as the...

Just a reminder that the deadline for submissions to the March edition of the HDO is here. haven't received much so if there's anything you might have on the...
Yep, and some of us are even on spring break :-) SS ... If you’re not imaging the next few nights, you better check your pulse… DD Yep, and some of us are...
Yes, M40, the only double star in Messier's list. According to Ken Graun's book on Messier's objects, M40 was not a misidentification of a nebula by Messier,...
Hey, but its flying upside down! Very nice image Steve. Quite a difference from the film version. I didn't think you were that OLD! George ... From: Steve...
I am very new at this and want to try my hand at taking photos of the night sky. I just purchased a Celestron Nexstar 130 SLT and so far I am quite happy with...
Nice, George. M95 is so cool. It was on my list last for night too but I didn't quite "man up" enough to get it done. I spent most of the night getting my G11...
