Astronomical Adventures in Tenerife - March 2009
Loading...
Uploaded by Eagleseye45 on May 28, 2009
A week in Tenerife doing Astronomy in March 2009, represented as a single night.
Using a 24" Dobson for observing and imaging using an 80mm EPO refractor and an unmodded Nikon D300 DSLR.
Movie composed using stills from the Nikon.
The video starts with the clouds descending with the falling inversion layer as evening approaches, giving crisp, clear skies just right for observing. We watch the sky darken and then see the Zodiacal Light shining brightly below the Pleiades star cluster. The winter constellations are now on display giving some great nebulae and clusters for imaging in my 80mm refractor, or just a camera lens. As Orion sets, the winter Milky Way is too low to observe and we enter the realm of the galaxies. We also spy Omega Cantauri, an enormous globular cluster, which is breathtaking through a large scope, filling the whole field of view. As morning approaches Scorpius rises bringing the Summer Milky Way with it and a host of bright nebulae.
All too soon, the Sun rises over the lunar landscape of Tenerife and we see Mt. Teide covered in snow.
Six clear nights out of 7, at 2150 meters above sea level, boy was it cold!!! Can't wait to go again.
