Very cool, Brian!

I have been following Brian's images for sometime now.

He and Chris from the Philippines are grabbing great images and vids.

Detailed imaging no longer to stuff of major observatories and institutions.

Very cool indeed.

These are good. I spent the weekend at Conway experimenting with my webcams, but both the sky and webcam results were disappointing.

I swear Jupiter was looking almost that good in the 16" at Conway when conditions were decent. Can't wait to see it again.

I have to agree with headdunce. More of where that came from: www.tecca.com/news/2011/09/08/nasa-cassini-saturn-photograph/

This is really where no man had gone or will go!

Paulie,

Next time it gets as good. You MUST call me, PLEASE!!! I will be there in an hour w/ camera and gears.

Details on Jupiter is a beginner pursuit, that what I am currently after. Makes me think about Lowell and I don't mean Conway. ;D

[Paulie pchris00]

Percival Lowell?

I will let you know next time I'm going out to Conway. Tonight is supposed to be open house, but it looks like it will be clouded out.

Yes, but I meant the observatory out West up the mountain in AZ.
