oha, I hope, nothing was broken by the Typhoon?  Two month ago, we also had a surprising hard thunderstorm with heavy wind attacks, and my own Teleskop was standing at my balkony. When I came home, I found it broken in another corner... Shit! So I have to go to the Stuttgart Observatory to do my Observations... Maybe on X-mas I can get a new Telescop...

 

Thank you for the URL to the Mars map, there are a lot of details :-)) and I will ask for that book...

Dear Masatsugu,

 

λ=238°Ls, (ω= 105°W, 110°W, 115°W, 120°W, 124°W, 129°W, 134°W, 139°W, 144°W, 149°W, 154°W, 164°W, φ  = 19,4°S), δ = 23,77" ~ 23,8", ι= 16,78° ~16,65°

 

between 1:40 gmt and 2:23 gmt I had problems with my Laptop, it was too hot while I was processing a picture between the sessions and I had to boot several times to get my laptop working again...

 

best wishes

I always use an IR-UV Filter with my ToUcam to cut this wavelength, but the channelmix of the colours I cant fix with color filters (the orientation would not be the same...), so is is ok not to show the picture...
