That's awesome. Reminds me a of (iOS early days) Air Hockey dev. My wife & I bought some air hockey pucks from Sears, set up our cheap Microsoft microphone and recorded sliding/colliding pucks on our kitchen countertops to make all the game sounds.

Night 2 testing my new phd2 guiding algorithm. Seeing is bad again, but it's performing as expected. #astronomy #astrophotography

Testing's done for the first night on my new phd2 guiding algorithm. I have some logs to dig through to see how it handled losing/gaining stars, but I think it was good progress overall. Poor seeing tonight unfortunately. It's pretty cool to see it working. #astronomy #astrophotography #multistar2

I think my pinched optics problem is solved. Here are quick before & after NINA livestacks. Check out the spikes on the bright stars in the first shot - they shouldn't be there. #astronomy #astrophotography

Moon from a few nights ago. (Details: ED127 telescope, Poseidon-C camera, G11 mount, shot through thin high clouds, stack of the best 30% of about 1400 frames, processed in Autostakkert & Photoshop.) #astrophotography #astronomy

Testing & setup stuff for me tonight. Removed the rotator, realigned my focuser, polar alignment*3, PHD & PEC calibration, camera tilt adjustments...then test shots all over the sky to measure any flex/tilt, shots in & out of focus. I'm finally farting around on M42. #astronomy #astrophotography
