Week of April 7th

This week, on the 8th, we were able to get our pictures of Mars at Opposition. Along with Mars, we also took pictures of Mizar A and B. The on issues we originally had was that one of the camera adapter rings was screwed off. there are two different rings of different lengths. So, we had to take new pictures of a star set just to make sure we were comparing correct lengths, in case the previous star set pictures were different. After we got the pictures, we were able to start calculations. This week we only got up to averaging the opposition pictures together and finding the pixel measurements. This was along with the star set.
