Re: Contrail spotting November 2014

Hi astrakeri , great photos and nice conditions from your German location! Did you bring your telescope in the car from Italy or is it a vacation home with scope? James, your comment means a lot to me, thanks! Well, I bought another one (10") and had it delivered directly to my friend's home s...

Surprisingly good conditions although my Skywatcher was stubborn and was moving a bit hard, maybe because I use it just once-twice every 3 months! There may be some more following the next days! Nice weekend to all and I hope the s...

Hi there,
here's 2 photos I took yesterday11-10-14 from the balcony of a fiend in Wuerzburg-Germnay!! Unfortunately the clouds and rain went away at 16:30 and there was little time to cool the telescope! There may be some more pics in the following days,
