6-inch Astrophysics Super Planetary Refractor at f/36; Toucam Pro.
Seeing fair. A series of images was taken tonight at 10-minute intervals to produce this animation of Mars' rotation. Notice how the seeing changes, resulting in frames of varying quality. The feature Olympus Mons can be seen just leaving the face of the planet in the last frame.
