Here are two images of prominences from May 1, before the clouds moved in. One thing about solar imaging, the file size is certainly small. The white circle...
I took several AVI runs of a prominence on 4/30 and there was some difference between them. They were about 5-10 minutes a part. Normally I take 1000 frames...
Hello there, Yesterday (May 2) some friends and I ware looking trough my scope when suddenly someone asked me: 1. Have you've seen the Horse-head nebulae? and...
The Horsehead nebula is in Orion - near the left-most star in the belt. It is difficult to see visually. A hydrogen beta filter helps to increase the...
Wow, somebody got a real steal! By the time I saw your post, it was already sold. I would have certainly driven to Utah to get that for under $1,000. I am...
Kirby and I are thinking about going up there Tuesday, May 26 and returning Friday, May 29. This is the week after Memorial Day (Monday, May 25). That...
I'm working Memorial Day weekend.... all three days!! George ... From: Richard Richins To: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 11:10 AM ...
Great. I'll keep you posted on any developments. George ... From: gwestfal To: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 11:05 AM Subject:...
Due to Personal reasons (most of you know what they are) Chuck has asked that we appoint a new Public Outreach Coordinator to replace him as he steps down. I...
I've posted two more images taken at TSP. The first is a widefield shot of M58 taken with the ED80. It also includes M89 and M90. When taking that shot, I...
Very nice images Steve! That Orion has produced some very nice images. Any problems with it? George ... From: Steve Smith To: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com ...
Nice galaxy cluster, and the twins came out very nice. I notice a dim galaxy to the right of the twins. I think you need to crank up the magnification and...
Very nice images, Steve -- I love it when a close-up view (and a fine one at that) follows a wide-field shot. It really helps get the 'feel' for the region...
Hi Steve I have to say yours are the best images made with the SS-Pro that I have seen on the Web. I also have the SS-Pro camera and was considering changing...
Thanks John, I've been really happy with the camera so far. Getting the camera to work with Nebulosity wasn't difficult at all. It interfaces with the camera...
Thanks George. The only issue is there are some elongated stars in the corners with large chips. I've pretty much gone to using the Televue reducer/corrector...
Folks, A star party is scheduled for Saturday, May 16th, at the Chihuahua Desert Nature Park east of town. Here is the proposed schedule sent to Paul Harper ...
I might in the future. This one was made up of 14 images. I sent my solar blocking filter into Meade for repair ("rust") so it will be awhile before I do any...
Good luck with your filter. I'd heard that Meade was in trouble (much discussion on one of the Meade lists a few weeks ago). I'm guessing they'll rise from...
Regarding Meade....Found this on the web..... it certain does not look good for Meade. This might be a reason to give up on Meade (solar scope-wise) and take...
