The Occultation of Antares, 2009/6/6

by Dave Mitsky

 

This prime focus image of the first-magnitude star Antares and the Moon was captured after Antares reappeared through a 17" f/15 classical Cassegrain and my Canon EOS Digital Rebel DSLR camera.  The location was the Astronomical Society of Harrisburg's Naylor Observatory near Lewisberry, Pennsylvania.

    Man, that's gotta be a tough capture against the magnitude of the Moon!  Well done.
