Mars at 450X in Real-Time

Описание: This real-time video shows the planet Mars as viewed thru a Takahashi Mewlon 250 (aperture = 250 mm) telescope. The magnification is 450X. Atmospheric seeing is fairly good so one can make out dark and light structures on the planet's surface. There are a few white patches. One of these is Mars' polar ice cap, i,e, the small spot on the right edge of the disc. Shot with a Sony A7 camera. Taken on the evening of Mar-22-2014.
