good work. i was on a beach last night and the ISS first went past about 10pm, very clear and bright then it passed around 11ish but on a different path and not quite as bright. unfortunetly i didnt have a 'scope or bino's! was great to see as always though! dave

i cant stop playing about with it, just making the planets go round and round is fun!! its also great for working out when we will have the chance to see other planets!! dave.

check it out! http://www.solarsystemscope.com/ dave

in 4 hours ill find out! tick tock tick tock! :)

its in quite a good position where i am, not at the zenith but nowhere near the horizon. if its clear i can get a good nights viewing from as soon as the sun sets. a few weeks back i even managed to view it while the sky was blue, it was that clear it stuck out long before any stars were visable!! ill be on it tonight aslong as the clouds stay away but according to the weather reports, i may not be that lucky! :) dave.

yep, that looks like what iv been seeing! thanks todd :) dave

cheers isabelle, that was an interesting read! :) dave

cheers isabelle. i just found it strange how its been there for so long and does not seem to have moved at all! its probably moved alot but to the naked eye i cant see any change! when is mars going to be coming into view? iv been waiting for a good 6 months to see it, it must be like a game of cat and mouse up there, the earth is chasing mars in its orbit! :) thanks again. dave.

yeah iv read loads on nibiru aswell, it makes an interesting read but i dont think, or i dont want to believe it! i seen a video on youtube which shown you the area of google sky where it is supposed to be, or something but it is blanked out, i then went onto google sky, put the same co-ordinates in and the sky and there is nothing there. it just makes me wonder, so i thought id ask what people on here thought. thanks for the link, ill have a read now. dave

im just curious why it hasnt left the nearby star like object behind! last night was clear, i got my scope out and as usual the dirtyest black cloud in the whole wide world appeared out of know where. so i put the scope away, then like a fart in the wind, it disappeared!! typical! :)

around 3 weeks ago i was viewing saturn and i noticed a star just above to the right. i at first thought it was titan ( which i didnt think could be visible with the naked eye ) and after i pointed my scope at it i realised it wasnt, or so i believe. its now been a few weeks and saturn still has the same star at the same position and it is still visible to the naked eye, if it was titan it should have shifted round saturn but its still in the same place. what is this star like object that is following saturn? saturn is gradually drifting across the night sky and iv been expecting this star ( or whatever it is ) to be left behind but its still there. im curious as to what it is, can anyone explain? dave.

what are peoples opinions on this? i have read alot over the last few months and am curious to know more! i dont know what to believe!

excellent! :)

only half way in and this lad sounds like my own kind, propa lancashire lad! the viewing continues! :)
