Fullerscopes Telescope Mountings

This blog has become my ATM design, build and imaging diary. I have recently built several new telescopes, a large equatorial mounting and a raised 10' [3m] dome on an octagonal building. Be aware that I deal with building solar telescopes. Which are potentially VERY dangerous! I can accept NO responsibility for any action not directly supervised by myself. You are NOT entitled to blame any other person for your OWN lack of skill or ignorance. You copy me at your own peril!

6.10.2022 Imaging AR3112 spot group

Thursday 6th 54F, gales, heavy plates of cloud with only occasional clearing. Sky white around the sun.

10.13 [CET] AR3112? Captured some videos between clouds in boiling seeing conditions. Set SharpCap to 1448x1216 to capture the huge spot group in one frame. Also useful to confirm the Lunt 60MT etalon's sweet spot over such a wide field of view.
