Mars at Opposition

Dusted off the old Celestron C8 telescope to capture this bright and colorful planet, Mars.

Tonight, it is opposite the sun, big and bright all night long.

Not great seeing, with some turbulent atmosphere.

With a shorty 2x barlow. Still need more focal length.

Very cool shot. Like the colors. Sadly, there is never enough focal length.

More than a light spec in the sky - but to see the disk- outstanding
