Hi colleagues, The sky just started to clear out over Belgium, so I launched a session on OU Vir, which I expect to continue till about 2h UT (object then gets too low). If someone in the US can take over afterwards, that would be a nice continuation for this interesting target ! By the way : in a few hours from now, Mercury is transiting the Sun, visible from Belgium. I will attempt to follow this event through digital photography (not a CCD this time). If my attempts are successful, I'll drop some pictures on my web site later tomorrow. Cheers, Tonny Vanmunster CBA Belgium Observatory www.cbabelgium.com
