Chronos, yes, I am also satisfied with the results. Not bad for the first attempt. Though the images are taken with a 14mega pixel camera, they are not good when zoomed in because of the bad focus.. I could not get the focus right. And I was able to take only one picture of the Jupiter, even that was out of focus completely.. I will try to take multiple with good focus and stack'em up next time..

Only problem is we don't get continuous clear nights here in UK.. :(

hey btw, wish you luck..
