Celeste Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I put the scope out last night, had several issues with the mount (turning itself off and on again randomly, alt bolts not holding wobbly head) But I did manage to get some frames of Jupiter. Quick and dirty, but I did manage to get 2 moons in too Used the 150P-DS, Tal x3 barlow with an SPC900 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have caught it but apparently it's not so red at the moment and decreasing in size, I think its on the big middle band where you have a bit of swirls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
