Mars, Mar 19 ’25

Planet time! It was the perfect opportunity to attach my planetary camera to the telescope in Tower 1 at Hoher List.

As part of the astronomy club at Johannes Gymnasium Lahnstein, Mars was already in the focus of the 4000mm Ritchey-Chrétien telescope.
My planetary camera was only used briefly to capture the two videos later processed here.
