Jupiter passing the Moon, series of shots, with 2500mm telescope

[Wazza]

Was told on the news today, about a rare occurrence of Jupiter passing behind the moon. Apparently it's not due to be visible here again for about 70 years.

Of course, I was there to photograph it. :rolleyes:

Holy crap, awesome shots there Wazza :O
A startling amount of clarity and detail... real nice. How did you get the shots through the telescope?

That shot of the rainbow from a phone is remarkable considering it's from a phone, too! Nice Bcar.

It was shot through this Meade LX200 10" telescope, using a special EOS T-Mount adapter to connect a Canon SLR to the scope. :)

Yeah, they do indeed go up to 8 or more megapixels. I've seen some That are more than 20 megapixels! :eek: The price of them is even more eeeek!

@Warren: Nice detailed photos. :)

[Wazza]

Thanks Phil for the Monsterous comment. :D

And thanks Chris.

Too bad the weather hasn't been so great lately.
It would be cool if I could see a flash in the sky when the satellite plows into that comet travelling through our solar system.

July 4th, here we come.

Just when I thought I couldn't be suprised by your camera skills anymore. :eek: -^

Also nice to see the neat photos you can make with cellphones these days (I'm not exactly good at keeping up with technology :rolleyes: )

[Wazza]

Thanks bud.

I don't think I can outdo myself anymore.

Now to put in my application with NASA, for the astronaught/photographer position. :rolleyes:
