Mars - February 10, 2012

On the night of Feburuary 10 th, 2012, ….. with a good, stable atmosphere, I could observe fairly good details on the surface of Mars.

General whole details of my sketch are seems to resemble the photographes of Fredd. Willems in the [Alpo – japan ] homepage on FEB. 3th , 2012. who had taken it with a C 14.

One of differences between my sketch and C 14 photoes is , the size, shape of the rather graysh white elliptical spot which sticked together beside the ” BIGGER” white NPC. …… my sketch shows ( that is to say, in the eyepiece view ….) a fairly more bigger size elliptical spot than C-14 photo.

telescope; 8 inches achromat f/ 12 refractor at x500
home-made equatorial
Location; at backyard my house in South Korea
white paper, graphite pencils
