Rarely i have attempted moon with C14 telescope and SBIG ST9XE camera. I have a very sensitive CCD and moon is always way more brighter than my chip can record. But this night, i am going to work seriously on my setup to see if i can actually get a nice lunar image.
I will write a blog with all the details of the imaging process i used. In short, i used an infrared filter and got many frames of 'Sea of Serenity' on the moon. The images were from 02:15 to 02:30.
