Quite new

Nice crescent Moon Composite of several images taken with the Canon 600d DSLR in still and movie mode. - Pip Stakkert
" Interesting day, after our Pip realised whilst looking through a bedroom window last night, that Saturn was not going to get high enough above our southern horizon here at the Jodrell Plank Observatory. Usually we use the pier mounted 127mm. Apo Refractor for planetary work but sadly not this year. Jolene McSquint has been working flat out all morning to upgrade the Observatory's mobile rig to take the 90mm. Maksutov Cassegrain scope out and about and get an image of the ringed planet however poor." - Kurt Thrust acting CEO and current Director of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.

" Some more and detailed images of the moon  taken back in April of this year which I overlooked at the time" Pip Stakkert
