That's bizarre. I would have bet good money that was caps too. Actually , that's a valuable human factors/interface point for future use!

Anyway, if no one minds my getting back to the post subject, finally got the varmit.

From 3 filter settings, and 4 exposures, HM:


Same deal, LM:

Love the wide-field shot with the trace of a tail. It's starting to look alot like Pojmanski or Swan

I had to rely on only one snap for the LM view lat time, since I got suckered into trying the galaxy/comet setting again and it faded away to no tail, as it does 80% of the time. The tail was actually longer the first night.

So, I waited two days and did 2 missions, back-to-back on star setting, and got a decent view of the tail, before it disappears for real.



Would love to see that in the 4"!

This is going to have to be all from me.

Nice pics, thank you Harold, hadnt seen it on SLOOH until your pics, tho have just caught it now on one of your missions. Very nice indeed with that teeny tail .
