Note:
Seeing 5 out of 10. Following a friends and family Mars Watch party.
Calm, cool, recent cold front. No bugs, really a great night, other then
the seeing wasn't as good as wished.
No weather seen... no NPH, or limb
clouds. Just lots and lots of surface detail. Perhaps more detail in
Syrtis Major then I've ever drawn before. Interesting breaks on both P
and F sides of SM. Hellas basin is clearly "divided" into a northern
brighter section and the southern darker section that showed detail
within the basin.
