Description

This is possibly my last session imaging Mars this aparition, as I finally managed to get Olympus Mons up front and fairly central, the first time in 3 months of imaging the red planet that I managed to capture it. Even so the seeing was only poor to fair and with Mars now rapidly receding from Earth it is displaying a disc only 75% the diameter seen in early/mid October around the time of closest approach and opposition.
