Re: Mars tonight


 

Don't wait! Mars takes many observing sessions to even get a decent night. If you do just one or two the odds are stacked against you. Emoji
Mars really is a campaign, not a random observation. If you can find an albedo chart that is the best. Detailed geological charts tend to confuse you as exact details as seen on the map never come out in observation. It is always gradational.? Sky tools gives a good idea what to look for. Good luck Jonathan.

I've been studying my maps and my mars globe. ?I too have a mars filter I ordered after the last opposition that I haven't used yet.? I've been waiting for mars to be visible a little earlier in the evening, opposition is Jan 15.? I probably shouldn't wait too much longer given the weather.? ?Thanks for the great motivating report Mark.
