@@RefreshingViews I can relate to all of it. She reminded me of the man who used to walk around with a cat on his shoulder at the BAA meetings in the 1960's (sorry Mary😀) Patrick would have been at home there too.
@@davidhenderson1073 I spend a significant amount of my day with at least one cat on my shoulder. Both of my tortoiseshell cats think they're parrots, lol!
Hi Rory, if you're interested in the RPi meteor camera set ups, type Pop Astro Meteor Camera into Google and you'll find the in depth article my husband Mark wrote all about how you set one up. He's part of the Global Meteor Network coding team so he's tried to make the article as easy to understand as possible
Yours is one of my fav YT channels , and now multiplied by this wonderful video with Mary . What a fascinating insight to her set up . One question , what direction is the back garden facing ? Very jealous of the fact you have a lovely clear out look , Mary .
Thank you Stuart. The back garden is NW facing, so the hill behind shields us from light pollution but the downside is that it often cuts off aurora and noctilucent clouds. But we'll take that for the amazing view we have :)
The tripod spreader nailed to the wall speaks of someone, like myself, who has been unable to find it at the start of a session lol
That made me chuckle! Cheers.
we've all been there!
Interesting tour Mark. A very knowledgeable and accomplished couple.
Glad you enjoyed it, David. They’ve got a great set up in a lovely garden haven’t they?

Great to see you both ❤
Cheers Bob. Hope you’re ok.
A beautiful Video good luck my friend you and this beautiful lady ❤
Thank you! You too!
The only thing I can draw is my breath. Great video Mark. Some more videos on EAA please.
Will do alas waiting for the long summer nights to draw in. How’s you in meantime?
I'm surprised I didn't see Mono jump on Mary's shoulder throughout the video, thanks for the tour clear skies!!
I'm pretty surprised that either Eevee or Mono didn't end up on my shoulder at some point!
Maybe one of them will another time lol
Excellent thanks :)
You're welcome, Andy.
That was great to watch. Lots of info way beyond me. Would love to know more of the RPi setup.
Regards
Cheers Rory - follow Mary as she writes great material for all levels.

So glad you enjoyed it Stuart and yes Mary is fantastic. We had a great afternoon talking astronomy kit and observing projects.
Neat.
Thanks!
