It was clear last night so I was able to set up my C11, spend several hours setting up the mount and the scope, faffing about with focus and guiding and calibration frames and all that sort of guff.
Then I pointed at M92, a globular cluster of stars in the constellation of Hercules. A grand sight. For all of 15 minutes before the clouds rolled in. Oh well. At least I got enough data to build this image.
The cluster lies at a distance of 26,700 light years from Earth and has an estimated mass of up to 330,000 solar masses. With an estimated age of 14.2 billion years – almost the same age as the universe itself – M92 is one of the oldest clusters known and possibly the single oldest globular in the Milky Way

Actually by this stage the tents and the tarp are all up. But it shows off the setting of our camp quite nicely. This was our home for a week.

Le Messerschmitt KR200 ou Kabinenroller (scooter à cabine), était un véhicule tricycle biplace en tandem conçu par l'ingénieur aéronautique Fritz Fend et produit dans l'usine du constructeur aéronautique allemand Messerschmitt. En fait, tout a commencé dés 1948, lorsqu'il commercialise un microcar destiné aux mutilés de guerre et aux handicapés, c'était une première petite voiturette à une place et à trois roues qui est baptisée Flitzer fabriquée artisanalement à Rosenheim...

Whilst most plants haven't even flowered yet, the Coltsfoot is already setting seed, the white fluffy seed heads replacing the bright yellow flowers.

Penny was quite the eager helper while we were visiting - she helped my aunt cook dinner and set the table.
Also, my aunt has a GORGEOUS house. I wish I had a third of her decorator sense.

An attempt to photograph the tail of Comet McNaught. No traces of the tail were visible in the photographs. A nice photo of the setting moon among the ocotillo made the evening worthwhile! Canon 18-55 mm @ 18 mm. f/4.0, 20 sec, ISO 800.
