Description
The large crater Clavius (and the location of a “future” lunar outpost if ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ is accurate.This is a mosaic of five different images. I’m not exactly sure what the magnification is – but I think I’ve read that the DMK acts as a 6mm eyepiece. If so, the magnification would have been about 1042X. That seems a tad high though?
How does the brightness look? I had to adjust it slightly for this laptop, and I’m hoping it won’t be over exposed on brighter monitors.
Taken with my 10” Newtonian telescope on an EQ6 mount. A 5X Powermate was used with my DMK21AU04.AS camera. Registax was used for processing and the images were stitched together.

There is no moon base – that’s entirely the point of my video.

You've got magnifficent details on the moon !!!
(the area is left of Tycho crater)
I understand there are huge more details to get at 10" than my 3" lense.
