Brilliant Tom. I love it!

What is the RA and Dec for this?

I got an adapter to attach my U16M camera to my TCC for the AP140 after seeing how good your images were.

Here is a reprocess which brought out a lot more colour. Not sure if I overdid it but it is a very colourful area.

C02 climbing, temperatures dropping

Posted By Greg Bradley

Just so you know, last year was officially the hottest year on record for Australia.

This last week several records for hottest day were broken since records began over 100 years ago.

Melbourne Australia went to 46.8C yesterday - that is 116.24F. This is a very southern city (south means cooler in the southern hemisphere).

The antartic ice is breaking up further in and is getting smaller.

In Sydney where I have lived almost all my life, 40C days are far more common and happen earlier in the year than they did in the previous 40 years.

Now that is not scientific but its real experience not opinion.
