Description

Given the general poor aspect of the Moon and planets from the UK at the moment, I have spent some time revisiting some of the images I took from the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma, in 2009.  The scope was the same C14 I am still using, the camera was a Lumenera Infinity 2.1M.  There were very few dedicated astro cameras available at the time, the Infinity 2.1M was sold as a microscopy camera.  The frame rates achieved were typically 8-13/sec and the 1/2" chip size seemed enormous at the time.  How times have changed!
