Mars Mapper



An interesting website is Mars Mapper. It shows how the Red Planet shows up in your telescoop. Any date between july 2020 and the spring next year will give you a simulation of Mars.

I used my picture from last night to compare. See the result for yourself :)

Sun CaII K-line


This afternoon I took some pictures of a quit Sun using Baader filter CaII K-line without my solarfilm ND3.8. Doing this I was able to focus much better which resulted in very sharp pictures.

Setting : Nikon D7500 with TAL200K f/8.5; ISO800 and exposure time of 1/50s. Editing using CS4.
