Capturing a plane passing the moon in a video
I actually have a question, is there a way to know if a plane will pass the moon? Also I guess second question, can I stack this even when a few frames have the plane? I'm new to astrophotography but I've been a photographer since 1987. Looking for friends and Astro buddies to learn from. I'm in Palm Beach County Florida.

How things have changed for our kind of people!
I'm getting up there in years (67 this Sunday😊 ). I've loved astronomy since I was a kid. First telescope was a 4 inch Newtonian at age 10. It was pretty fancy. It had an EQ mount and even slow motion knobs. My dream some day was to get what we called at the time a "clock drive" so I wouldn't need to always be turning knobs to keep the target in the eyepiece! Astrophotography was film only, so forget about it for someone like me! 😂 Fast forward to today where my 14 inch RC guides a digital camera perfectly and even focuses itself and automatically flips and reacquires the target after it passes the local meridian. I take astrophotos now like I only saw in books back in the day! What a marvelous time to be an amateur astronomer! Enjoy it!

Happy Thanksgiving to all friends around the world
Yes, it's an American holiday but it's a good day to reflect on those things for which we are grateful. I'm grateful for this hobby and this group of people!
