With dedication over a few clear nights, you could also produce a similar movie of Pluto as it moves! (I know there would be a huge gap between nights because of daylight, but Pluto doesn't move all that fast!)

Seanie - I already did an animation of Pluto - only two shots though.
I started doing some other planetary shots for Bart - with moving moons (Neptune and Uranus) but getting an extended spell of clear nights has been a major problem...

Oh I've already seen that before, but my point being is to get a couple more shots and stitch them together from more than 2 nights! I demand it from you Dave goddammit! You're slacking ever since you got that 1200 Kylie! :twisted: :lol:

Seanie - you're absolutely right. I've no excuse. I'm going to buy time on the Australian and US rental scopes so I can image Pluto 24/7 and do a one month 'real-time' animation of Pluto for you
Actually - I always intended to extend the Pluto animation so I will. Watch this space!
