:shock:
Ha!
Thats gas.

It's a pity we didn't take a better shot.
We only took it for the craic to record how big the projection was.
Ah well.

Sorry BTW Dave for sending it in without asking you if you'd mind..
I hope I haven't blown your cover!

It is a pity the image didnt come out clearer, it looked alot better on the camera screen,
We had to be careful as the moon was flying across the wall at some speed since this scope is not goto/tracking enabled ATM so we could not take a "long" exposure.
The second it appeared on the wall, I unwittingly reached up to touch the "moon", after about half a second it struck me that this was just a pebbled dash wall, it was really funny, you had to be there. :oops: :lol: :lol:
