Last man standing
Forget Cambrai, Kursk and Tobruk. The greatest tank battle of the last 100 years has just taken place in our house 😎
No cats were knocked off the arm of the chair during this epic battle...
unlike when we're Wii-bowling and the dopey mog catches the backswing square in the face 🙄
Jupiter revisted
More metaphorically than literally, of course!
I've reprocessed the video data used for the images which I posted on the 13th, using a slightly different method. This has resulted in some subtle improvements without the introduction of some of the processing artefacts that were evident in the previous versions. These are about as good as I can get them:

Observing Report 9th-10th September 2009 (More Jupiters)
After spending a good four hours refining the drift-alignment of my pier-mounted scope and then grabbing a load of PEC data using PERecorder, I had a few minutes left to grab some frames of Jupiter before it went out of my field of view.
The purpose of this was to see how the mount was behaving, rather than to do a serious imaging session, but I thought I'd post the results here anyway. Due to the average seeing and the Moon being up it's not my best image of Jupiter, but at least I no longer have to keep faffing with the RumblePad to keep the target centred on the webcam chip.
The two versions of the same pic differ only by the amount of sharpening. I might run them through Noel's Actions later to see if it makes any difference.
