Telescope view of comet Holmes from Gais/Switzerland. Raw video taken with 114/500m mirror telescope and Watec 120N video camera. Step outside to see the comet. It is currently visible to the naked eye.
This is from a storm chasing on May/13/2006 in Texas. I and my chase partner Markus Pfister had fun with some large hail banging on the roof of a gas station.
The eclipse of 1999 was my first total solar eclipse. Unfortunately the sky was overcast during totality. Nevertheless it was impressive and we had fun. We observed the eclipse near Metz in France.
