I was showing Vince Eta Carina neb last night in my t5 31mm then I put the OIII 
and showed

him again. It really does love that OIII. I don't bother using a filter on 
Orion Neb it's such a bright

sucker there isn't a lot of Benefit. but that is just me. Could easily pick out 
E and F in the trap.

 

I'll dig up an image labelling a some of the objects in Eta Carina. you might 
as well look and learn

a few it makes looking at Eta Carina a lil more pleasing than just the neb 
itself. 

 

Vince and I spent about an or so together then Vince left and I stay up for 
maybe another hour.

The sky looked cruddy, lots of particles in the air. but I think both Vince and 
I were pleasantly

surprised the views were nice and crispy clear. I'm having an encoder problem 
with the AN so

we had do it manual. Thor's Helmet and NGC 2070 with OIII were really nice. 

 

I had a hard day at the office today so I'm relaxing and sucking back a few 
beers. Maybe a quick

session after midnight tonight if it is clear.

 

Cheers,CS

Hi all,

 

I had a good session last night, mainly PN's. Eta Carinae nebula was

so detailed, Keyhole and other dark lanes stood out beautifully.

The star itself was hammered by the filter, but overall the

whole region looked more interesting than the Orion Nebula region.

The Argo performed well, going from one PN to another with the 5mm

and O-III filter in place. Might as well make the most of it before that

giant cyclone clobbers Qld.

 

Cheers, Paul.

could be

cloudy. eeeeck!

I was out for a while last night just with my binocs - it was lovely (except 
for the darn mossies). I think we should enjoy it while
we can by the looks of that cyclone.

Looking pretty good out there tonight lads and ladette's. It's always the way 
though isn't it.

I'm going for a quick glide then come home and drag the 16" out and into to 
life.
