Wanna see Santa's sleigh in the night sky? Get your kids or grandchildren out of bed on Christmas Day morning to see the International Space Station (ISS) pass. There are two passes!
Weather forecast kept changing, but ultimately did not look good. Rain all day. A gap of a few minutes, which was enough to get the Lunt Solar Telescope out, focus and image a few only. Below some images from SDO captures
Scopes4SEN got a Celestron 5SE and astronomy books donated by Jo Warren from Kidderminster. We found a lovely home for the scope.
Peter Spink from Crich donated to Scopes4SEN a SKYMAX-127 SynScan AZ GOTO 127mm (5") f/1500 computerised Makskutov-Cassegrain, which comes with a Sky-Watcher 7Ah rechargeable power pack. Thank you so much. We will find a very nice home for this scope.
