It will be interesting to see the astro-camera! As I have previously mentioned, if the sun is out during the ATM session, we can view it with my scope. Also Chuck, if you have one of your 50mm solar scopes ready, bring it and we can all admire it. No pressure to finish one by then though...

That's my thought, though Saturday evening is supposed to bring some clearing. If it clears in the west before sunset is anybody's guess. I'm going to try and attend the morning ATM session at Mat's, so I won't get the shakes if it's cloudy later on. I'll be bringing my mocked-up 6" f/1.25 astro-camera. I threw together a wooden housing to do some preliminary visual tests. Funniest looking "telescope" you've ever seen. A wooden cube about 8 inches square. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message and any included attachments are from Siemens Medical Solutions and are intended only for the addressee(s).
