Hi Group, Here is a session from last night compare to the night before i missed it (29th) sat on my keypad and the mount took off by the time i went back it was to low. Last night almost missed it again just when the scope approached to the coordinates (Jpl coordinates) i started to search and it poped into view quickly and i started shooting. on this 12 of 13 frames one got lost taken at 15 sec. intervals. 20 seconds later clouds rolled in and rain soon followed. Clear kies Efrain

Nice catch of a rare kind. I thought I was the only one that did things like that. Lost an entire 8 hour night when I forgot to turn on autosave. Very frustrating.

Least you could recover and get it the next night. It's clear here tonight but sitting at -31C per the camera's sensor. Its electronics don't like temps below -30 but trying anyway.

Hi Efrain.
Nice capture of this event, Im sure not to many people got a chance to grab a photo of this thing. Great job. Clear skies to you and your friends. Paul

Thanks Rick and Paul, It was a challenge. The weather in the states looks pretty bad snow, winds and the temps. Last night a town here registered 43 deg. F. very unusual being in the tropics. wish you Clear Skies.
