Hi all. I just added a new image of M27 to my image gallery. It is the first real image taken with the Tak CN-212 in Cass mode at F9.9. I think the scope has pretty good potential for higher magnification imaging. Here is a link to the thumbnail image: http://www.utahastronomy.com/album16/Utah_Astronomy_M27 Click on the thumbnail for the full version. Cheers, Tyler
Beautiful work Tyler. Can't wait to see more when the sky and conditions are improved (poor transparency and moonlight didn't help last night). Very cool new scope by the way... Keep 'em coming! --- Tyler Allred <tylerallred@earthlink.net> wrote:

Beautiful! I admired it from here in Orlando, where I'm waiting out the shuttle launch. Or at least I'm waiting at least through today. If the press conference this afternoon indicates there's a much longer wait I'll probably go home. -- Joe
Thanks Joe. Did you take a flyrod? :) Cheers, Tyler -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces+tylerallred=earthlink.net@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces+tylerallred=earthlink.net@mailman.xmission.co m] On Behalf Of Joe Bauman Sent: Friday, July 15, 2005 7:11 AM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] M27 Image Posted Beautiful!

No, no flyrod, and I'm nearly going out of my mind with boredrum. The trip to the space center takes about an hour each way, and other than that, there's nothing to do. If the shuttle had launched it would have been a petty annoyance to put up with the drive, heavy humidity, heat, being away from home. But as this drags on it seems more and more pointless. Thanks, Joe
Well Joe, if it's excitement you're looking for, you could always go surfing with a pork chop tied around your neck... Just kidding! ;) --- Joe Bauman <bau@desnews.com> wrote:

Boredom? 20 minutes from the space center, cocoa beach, Sea World, Disney World, Epcot Center, the BEACH, etc. etc. Shame on you for being bored! :o) -Rich --- Joe Bauman <bau@desnews.com> wrote:

The problem is I can't afford to take time away from the story -- I have to be at NASA press h.q. much of the day waiting for press conferences that never happen on time, then I have to drive back to my hotel, edit photos and send them in, then write my story and send it in. By the time I finish with that it's late at night. I can't afford to stray away in the mornings because of the demands of breaking news. And to be frank I never enjoy myself in another city without my wife -- poor me -- Joe

You're giving the press a bad name... ;)
