[AZ-Observing] Re: Astroimages from Cherry Road

If the beam "ends" on the CCD field, I'm sure it'll show in the image ...at
least, that's my hypothesis.  I base that off of observing the end of the
laser through a telescope.  If it shows there, I'm sure it would show up on
a CCD image.  Either way, I think another experiment is warranted.  Jon?
