Default Mars dust storms

http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2...l_marsdust.htm

for background info on dust storms. The strom of 2001 which began like
the current storm was the 10th such storm detected since 1877. No
gurantees but no reason to be pessimistic either.

Cheers

Martin

Default Mars dust storms

A storm, on Mars....
Thats why i thought i had somthing in my eye...
I knew there was more detail last time i looked.

And another thing, why is it i have lashed out on
a nice big light bucket but my Tal100 still works
better on planets than the Orion at less than half
the price?

Collimation perhaps, god im a coward, i must
do it some time.
