She was a remarkable woman who achieved so much. It seems that the film was very true to the historical facts for once.

I prefer the 9x50. I live in a suburban area with Bortle 5/6 skies and the extra aperture helps. I also use the RACI along side a Rigel quick finder which helps get into the general area of interest before fine tuning with the Raci.

I too have the LS50 THa and I am very happy with the detail it gives. The only problem I had was the supplied helical focuser. I quickly replaced it with a feather touch

Very nice report Mike. I have been doing something similar using coloured filters on Venus. I have never been a great fan of these, but I purchased a few filters to try on Mars later in the year. To my surprise I have found that the #47 violet and #80 blue filters have improved the views of the clouds. Quite a subtle difference requiring prolonged views to get my eyes in so to speak, but definitely worth the effort.
