Во! Разумный подход, хоть и на полсекунды удовольствия. А если прикрепить (например, скотчем), твой бинокль соосно с рефрактором? Там поле 7 градусов, увидишь в основной - и сразу в бинокль.
To the dismay of sky watchers in Europe and North America, space shuttle Atlantis has not appeared very often in the night sky during the ongoing final mission of NASA's shuttle program. The apparitions have been taking place instead during broad daylight. French astrophotographer Thierry Legault sends this picture of Atlantis and the ISS passing directly in front of the sun on July 15th:"We enjoyed a rare day with clear skies," says Legault. "Good seeing allowed me to capture many details of the docked spacecraft." A labeled close-up shows the crisp outlines of Atlantis, a Progress cargo ship, the space station's wide solar panels, and many of the station's research modules and crew quarters--all silhouetted by solar fire. Daytime apparitions aren't so bad, after all.The shuttle is scheduled to return to Earth on Thursday, July 21st, never to fly again. Farewell, Atlantis, and thanks for all the transits!
SPACESHIPS IN THE SUN: Space shuttle Atlantis undocked and backed away from the International Space Station on July 19th at 4:18 am EDT. Less than an hour later, the two spacecraft flew directly in front of the sun over the Czech Republic in Europe:Astrophotographer Thierry Legault traveled 1300 km from Paris to take the picture--the last double transit of the shuttle program. "The shuttle was poised to begin its flyaround of the ISS at the time of the transit," he says. Legault has taken pictures like this before, sometimes even better, but never quite so final. The shuttle will return to Earth permanently on Thursday, July 21st, at 5:57 am EDT. "Farewell, Atlantis!" says Legault.
ISO 800, f/3.5, 5 кадров по 15 сек., почти навигационные сумерки, максимальное поднятие МКС на 15о над горизонтом, дальность 1100-1200 км.
На горизонте виден контур башни БТА? Кадры просто складывались по границе кадров?
"Кедр" в первые часы после запуска будет пролетать рядом с МКС, для его наблюдений можно применить бинокль. Чистого неба и успешных наблюдений!
