  1. Hi John, and a warm welcome to SGL to both you and your wife! I'm just up the road from you - east of Nelson. That's a nice starter scope you have there, and a great Christmas present! Although it is a fully automated scope you might want also to download a free planetarium software "Stellarium". This will also give you a realistic view of what you can expect to see through your eyepiece (Downloadable here: http://stellarium.org/en_GB). In Padiham you are also lucky in that you are never far from the countryside and some darker skies - especially around Pendle (try the car park at Barley for starters). I'm sure you are going to have fun with your scope. Martin
  2. Qualia, another excellent and informative guide. Many thanks for taking the time to put this together in such a readable way. Martin
