Thanks Jim, There are so many people suffering down here and it goes on for a long time. Doctors offices closed, phamacies cant fill perscriptions, no food, can't find people to do work if you are not able to repair the damage yourself and price gauging. My wife just got a call from the store...

The big palm tree came down abour 6' away from the observatory.

Well hurricane Ian came roaring through last week with a vengance. My yard was really hit hard, but only had a few roof shingles missing. My observatory only had slight damage. Here are a few photos. I don't know when I will be up and running with the telescope but I still have the solar scope...

Thank You Doug!

Jim, Nice shot , longer imaging sessions would help a lot especially at the location you image from. You are fortunate for the transparent skies.

Thanks Oliver

Thanks Dan!

Thank you John!

Ben, that gap is the shadow of Saturn.

Thanks Alan!

It finally cleared up to get a second shot of Saturn. The seeing was very good and the transparency was very good for florida standards. I used the celestron 9.25 Edge and a 2.5 Powermate, ASI224mc camera.
