SkyWatcher AZ-GTi Telescope Mount - 36% Moon & Mars

in #skywatcher6 years ago


A new gadget! Okay, we have a lot to get used to but hopefully this electronic telescope mount will help stabilize the zoomed footage and make things easier - once everything gets figured out. I haven't had much opportunity to fiddle with it yet because of our crappy sky conditions.

Anyway, we have a 36% lit Waxing Crescent Moon and a blurry Mars over in the SW sky.

4:31pm to 4:51pm and 4 hours later 8:18pm to 8:42pm, Thursday Dec 13, 2018, NE Ohio, 29°F (-2°C) - ESE & SW Sky

aaa so cool! :D I got Skywatcher 150/750 Explorer but without an automatic tripod so I can't do a lot but it's exciting every time I use it.

Can't wait to get back there :D Have a great time! ;)
