First night using my IK-WB11A camera. I am very happy with these initial results on the moon. Jupiter was dissappointing. |

An odd evening. The naked eye view of the Moon was vivid and clear, but there were large thick clouds whipping by continuously. At the beginning of the evening, during a for-fun croquet match, it was about 80% clear, but by the time I was done playing and starting to set my telescope up (~2am) it had closed in to only 20% clear. The clouds were whizzing by so fast, I was able to sneak a few frames in between them as they sailed by. I was not able to complete the 2x survey however as the cloud cover eventually thickened to 100%. It was 3am and time to go to bed anyway!
