Ah but are they still supernova-free? Better look again! ------------------------------ On Tue, Dec 10, 2013 6:32 AM MST Wiggins Patrick wrote:
Well, there's one handy thing about these cold temps. I run my camera at -10 year round. In July and August it sometimes has problems cooling down that far. But tonight I didn't even need to turn the cooling circuit on as ambient has been between around -14 all night.
Sure is a dry cold too. I've been open for a bit shy of 11 hours tonight and there no frost on the scope.

p.s. I can certify at least 320 galaxies to be supernova free tonight...

Some snow pictures (can’t really say it’s winter) from St. George. I had to clear out the driveway observatory with a flat-head shovel. That was a real treat. I guess when area businesses get in another batch of snow shovels I’d better buy one. I was sure missing the snow thrower I used to have when I lived in Salt Lake City. It’s 11:26 MST (18:26 UTC for Patrick and Joe) and it’s 14°F (-10°C for Patrick and Joe) at my house.
