  1. One trick amateur astronomers can do to minimize atmospheric turbulence is to record in Near IR light. Longer wavelengths are less affected by our atmosphere, but there is a small resolution penalty. On really turbulent nights like tonight, I would just stay in and play video games or something.  :mlp_laugh:

    Anyway, here's a couple video clips of the Moon I recorded this evening. Much less turbulence should be seen in the 2nd video clip. Enjoy!  :mlp_grin:

    1st video: Visible spectrum

    2nd video: Near IR

    3rd: Near IR

      Really interesting! XDlaR1K.png

      There's Princess Luna in the 3rd video at 1:18! mU2DJ4V.png It's too dark to see, but she is there! :D

      @Rikifive, I bet she goes to the other side of the Moon when it's full, just to mess with us.  :mlp_laugh:
