Default Craters at the moon's western edge

Hi friends of the night,

on friday, I've taken a few moon shots with my six inch
Achromatic refractor at 5 meters of focal length (that's 197 inches *ggg*)

There are structures visible down to about three miles an below.

Find the pictures on my moon pages

http://mitglied.lycos.de/moonpages/index.htm

marked with NEW! - in the CCD item.



lg,


Markus

Nice pictures Markus, especially the Schroeter valley.

Markus

Are you really telling us you have a 3 metre long 6" refractor?
Or is that the focal length with your 3x Barlow lens in place?
I searched your website and only found a 6" f:8......... :-)

Hi,

sorry, my fault. *bull*****

I wanted to say 5meters of effective focal length - its the 6" f/8
combined with an 2x Celestron Ultima barlow and a distance tube.

Yours,

Markus
