Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

Hi Simon, some really nice shots there. One question how do you get the camera cooled down to -15C?

@nerro

I do the flats by means of an Electroluminescant panel, there's a place in the UK that sells them called Hazel Electronics, I used to use the sky and also a blank wall iside the house

I built a cooling box which cools the imaging sensor directly, there's pictures on my flickr page
