Hi all, Imagine the frustration , a recently replaced telescope , clear skies for the last three nights , and high elevation ISS passes....brilliant , apart from the fact that at present I have nothing to attach the scope to the tripod with..... Agggghhhhh ! Tonight I gave in and decided to try and image ISS using the scope , placed on a patio table. Far from satisfactory as it is virtually impossible to get a fine focus on a toatlly unstable mount. However , I managed to grab a few frames , which although rather fuzzy , give me , I think , the first glimpse of the new truss. A strip of pics is now on my homepage http://www.satcom.freeserve.co.uk ....again , apologies for the quality , but if anyone can confirm my thoughts about the truss I'd appreciate it. As for the tripod.....well there's always the next run of passes........in February 2003 :O( John. http://www.satcom.freeserve.co.uk ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
