  1. Sunny all day...scope cooling....cloud rolling in! An astronomer's lot is not a happy one!

      Ay, I can appreciate your sentiment, mark. Here it's not so much the weather that is crippling but a herd of other compromises that just ruin a night's gazing.

  2. Got "rationalised" at work a couple of weeks ago :(. Got two job offers today :). Time for telescope shopping!

      Don't force yourself, Mark. There's time to do things and there are times when it just don't feel right to be doing those things, so I figure it just ain't worth it.

  14. Fantastic hour or so watching moons and shadws on Jupiter :).

     

  15. Set up and its instantly clouded over TWICE this evening :(. Feeling frustrated.... .

     

  16. Holidaying under dark skies in Northumberland - so many stars, I can barely find my way around (and really regretting not packing a 'scope).

  17. In memory of Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin (9 March 1934 – 27 March 1968).

     

  18. High thin haze, so frustrating!

     

  19. First time out for best part of a year...bit nippy outside, but the moon is magnificent!

  20. Watching Magazine Shot by Both sides on Punk Britannia - make me feel young again :( 1978 on the

  21. Moon, clear sky, moon . Telescope time :)

  22. Not the best seeing, but just good to be outside under a clear sky for a change!

  23. Getting darker - getting closer to home time - sunny all day - where the heck did all these clouds come from!
