photographing planet X on infra red film

[Photo Engineer]

I have the BK2010-A which is no longer experimental and has a complete software upgrade. It runs on QNX with a DOS like interface and command structure. Why would anyone want an experimental device that cranky.

Do you use stop bath with it?

Well actually, the model most appropriate for me is anything in the complete BS line.

The hand crank on the XBK does tend to tire one out.

What can be some fun is photographing Neptune and Pluto. Their positions are known. It still takes a decent telescope, good driven mount to follow the stars and work to perfect your technique. You'll need to photograph them on different nights to show that they have moved and are thus a planet, not just a star you thought was a planet. You can do the same with minor bodies like asteroids, comets and such. It is fun and sometimes when you are imaging known objects in that area you can discover new comets and things and if you're really, really, really lucky you can be the first one to see it and report it and they'll even name it after you. Hey, the lottery win is probably less likely...

Actually, a quick dip in water will stop most electronic devices!

Some people think that Planet-X is made up of non-baryonic matter, i.e. 'dark matter' that can't be seen. However, I think it's more likely made of boreionic matter, which is not dark, just extremely dim. I think your best bet for photographing it is an iPhone app. After all, there are over 200,000 of those, so odds are that one of them must work for photographing Planet-X. That, and I think that being descended from ancient Sumerian astronauts is as good an explanation of Steve Jobs as you're likely to find. It might also explain Jeff's cats in some way, or at least his jackalope.

I haven't bothered with this because I can find 117,000,000 images related to Planet-X on the internet in just 0.43 seconds with Google.
