Morris Oxford Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Trying to get the exposure right I kept getting star trails: Couldn't understand as it was only a 15 second exposure. After scratching my head for a while I realised I'd put the laptop down on the joystick so the RA was going full speed. Anyway seems I caught a meteor as well (looks a bit dim and constant brightness though): Camera fogged up after this so that was the end of that.

Perkil8r Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Most likely a satellite rather than a meteor Thanks for sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Yep, even line with sharp edges and constant illumination most likely a satellite Very atmospheric shots, like em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fondofchips Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Nice pictures, sometimes I just do daft things with my scope like chasing aeroplanes on sunny afternoons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
