First light w/ new camera
So tonight I made two jumps in my learning curve for the new mount. :)
1. Use the PC to align and control the mount - Not only did I get the PC controlling it, but I plugged in the gamepad and used it to do the alignment and syncing. It took some getting used to, but I successfully got it aligned and it worked well.
2. Camera - as you can see from the pics, I've got a new camera. It's for planetary, but the moon looked pretty good as well :)
This shot is of Pythagoras and Babbage (both cool math/computer names) - mine is the top one and the bottom is my moon guide showing that those were the names.
