Here's the photo I think you saw:
http://www.meade.com/images/09a.jpg

It was taken with a Meade http://www.meade.com/ 12" LX200
Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and here's the software that will
allow you to do that - http://www.skyshow.com/

I have the same scope but I do not have the software. I have
always thought this would be a neat thing to do.
