Arg will be on the road for Didymos. -Kai

A little too far to travel this weekend. Looks like great coverage though. Good luck!

Hope to try but no guarantees. Quite the drive for me but I'll do it if the weather seems promising. Attached is a more "local" path plot. A prospective "new" observer - Paul Walker in VT - is in the

Right now we have 7 stations signed up for this one tomorrow night, hopefully the weather cooperates.? It is "bright" at 11.1 with a 1.4 mag drop, long at 5.2 seconds and high in the ESE at 49

Friends,? it is time for me to down size a bit and to part with my trusty SkyWatcher EQ6-R Pro mount.?? The mount and tripod are in excellent condition (used by a little 'ol lady up at Cherry

Lawrence: Well, good that you try. ...And good that you video record the effort. Video lends itself to just "so much more" credibility in a report. I was interested in your project but that clear

Excellent work Roxanne! Quite the adventure - took several reads before I felt I could take it all in and reply. Interesting to read these adventures. Was in contact with Norm Carlson who apparently

Greetings group: Thanks Kevin for your reply with the woes of impact capture. While I did make a series of video's the day before maximum of the Perseids, they were the worse yet I've done using the

Reminds me of the time that me, and two friends drove to the 1989 Texas star party. On the way back, not counting stops for food or bathroom breaks, it was nonstop 41 hours. Rick Bria

Friends,? last week I had the opportunity to work with Marc Buie, Brian Keeney and the SwRI team on the (617) Patroclus-Menoetius campaign (aka PA20240811).? A top notch project team all the way

I'll echo George on both fronts. I've noticed that after about 3 days forward, you lose good events. (I still run for a week at a time.) I'm not all sure of the reason, but events will show up in the

George, ? I'm already doing that for 300 km from my location.? Also filtering for mag drops <0.1 and stars fainter than 14.5.? Thanks. ? ? Steve

Steve: Another thought... See the attached - I'd strongly suggest you use this "pre-filtering" box in Occult4 - especially check the setting of "passing within". I have 600km but 300km is another

Your first idea makes sense with the symptoms.? Maybe with the somewhat longer nights now I am just breaking the limits that I was just short of before. ? Hopefully the limited run I am doing now

Steve: I think when doing a search for a 2 week period (which you said takes about a DAY!).... the electrons are just simply getting tired from running around the circuit boards inside the computer.?

I'm learning more about the Occult problem I posted about a couple of weeks ago.? Here's the more... ? This seems to be an intermittent problem with my Occult prediction runs.? I generally let it

Greetings Kevin: Without a doubt, the problems of successfully recording lunar impacts are equaled only by how rare these events are. It is so hard to get all the boxes checked with a moon In good

I did some experimenting last year to try this, and would definitely recommend doing the same before the night of the meteor shower. With the .5 focal reducer of the RunCam in place, it's a tricky

Hello George: I'm just seconds away from learning the northern half of the moon is target area, and reading more as I speak, which was why I have been looking for the impact prediction map, but no map

Lawrence & All: So my question was... Is the Moon oriented in such a way that the Perseids will indeed impact on a portion of the Moon that is; 1) facing Earth, and 2), on a portion that is not
