Description

I like comparisons.

6 day Moon, 44.1 % illuminated.

Time (UT): 18:50 and 19:15.

Seeing: Fair-Good.

Altitude above the horizon: 50º and 46.3º.

Resolution: 0.17 arcsec/pixel(Barlow x2.5) and

0.15 arcsec/pixel (Barlow x2).

In a high contrast terrain, like this lunar subject, central obstruction has not much to say. I'll try to repeat the comparison picturing Jupiter, time permitting.

You might wish to see the setting for the test:

Telescopes. SkyWatcher 250/1200 and Orion Optics UK VX10L on EQ8 Pro
