Description

Mars, and Polaris, were playing hide and seek with clouds when the weather forecast said less than 5% cloud coverage.

I had to wait for almost an hour for the brief chance to spot Polaris in the polar scope to get a quick alignment done.

When I had everything ready to start recording video on Mars clouds hid it from view. From that point the clouds came and went until sometime after 5 am and then seeing decided it wanted to become more variable.
