Just to verify your guys' observations -- that good seeing bubble predicted by
CSC never seemed to reach Southern AZ either. It was actually much better the
preceding few days. Our skies seemed to be dusty along with the mediocre
seeing.
Did anybody see any Leonids? I saw one very nice meteor a couple days before
the max, and saw one bright Leonid the night of the max, but no sign of big
activity.
Clear skies,
Wayne (aka Mr. Galaxy)

Sheesh Tom. For not-so-good seeing, your results seem pretty good to me. I
would be quite happy to see that after an evening's efforts.
Having taken your head's up the other night and set up a C8 for imaging, I also
found the seeing to be less than optimal. Also, I had gotten giddy after
obtaining some remarkably crisp shots during opposition in August. The
problem is, I have not been able to duplicate the results from that night.
I'm going through the motions, but the consistency isn't there.
So, does this mean an almost Dark Blue series of squares on CSC still doesn't
promise steady sky?

The C11 was limited to by the seeing to prime focus for this image of Jupiter.
There is a smaller red spot at the north edge of the South Polar hood, near the
limb to the lower right of the Great Red Spot.
