Welcome to Marek's Astronomy Pages.
The CCD camera used for these shots is a cb 245. It mounts onto
an f4.5 x 30cm Newtonian Telescope.
The scope is a variable Altazimuth/Equatorial mount. Presently
it operates as an altazimuth.
Both axes are computer driven using Mel Bartels circuit design
and software.
