Visit Mars

Through April 2014 Mars was in opposition. I captured well over 100 images of the red planet through the Celestron 9¼", most of them in IR. That generated a huge amount of processing work, which I had attended to from time-to-time since then. I am now close to setting up a new page "Visit Mars". Mars has a very small globe so rather than having still images showing a globe only 150 or so pixels across, I have been building animated GIFs that show off the main surface features of the planet.
