Nice! I trust you don't have to deal with cell tower strobes. They've wrecked my night sky. Even fought to get the lights turned red, and lost. Didn't buy a nice telescope because of that (and my country neighbors who feel the need to light up the night sky after they leave the city). I moved away from town to escape the night lights. Didn't get a good return on my investment in that sense.
Hey it would be really cool to see what you can see with that beast. Do you have one of these? Celestron 93626 Universal Digital Camera Adapter tried to post link to Amazon..didn't show up.
We have nearby cell towers but I've never seen strobes on them. I don't have one mainly because taking pictures of the night sky is a lot more involved than just bolting on an adapter and connecting your digital camera. You can get away with a simple setup like that if you are trying to take pictures of the moon's craters or something super close like that, but you really need a specialized CCD camera setup that has the ability to capture very long exposures, as in 30 minutes or longer, if you want to photograph deep sky objects. And even then you have to take multiple pictures and then stack them and manipulate them in photoshop to reduce noise and enhance image quality. The whole process is one huge pile of work, and it ended up requiring way more effort than I wanted to put into it unfortunately.

Astronomers shared a collective sigh of relief last week when a 100-foot asteroid hurtling toward Earth missed by 50,000 miles—just a fifth of the distance to the moon. As comforting as the avoided terrestrial calamity was, what remains disturbing is that no one knew it was coming.... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...land-on-asteroid-after-one-nearly-clobbers-us

This finding bolsters other Hubble observations suggesting the icy moon erupts with high altitude water vapor plumes. The observation increases the possibility that missions to Europa may be able to sample Europa’s ocean without having to drill through miles of ice..."
