Yes it does John 😄 Where did you get yours again 🤔

Well after a looooooong wait over the weekend and thanks to Debo my 8" CC arrived today...very nice indeed 😊

Wow 😲 Bravo 👏

I seem to be slipping the other way Alan...had a couple of small Apo's, let them go and now I have the Vixen 80M 😂

Yeah, but I still use my 82 eyepieces on the Dob 🤣

I use a EQ platform with my Dob which gives me approx 1 hour on the planets without having to move the scope and this allows me to 'tease' out details

When my daughters seen Saturn for the first time it was a big "Woooooow" followed by "It looks like a little toy model" 😄

That's what I love about astronomy when showing these to family & friends Mark

It's on now Stu

Yeah, a couple of vintage stickers from fleabay

Here's my little 80M on vixen GP mount 😊 Think I'll change the D/Tail bar to black 🤔 Just noticed I never put the ext bar & weight on 🤣

I've got one of these on my Dob...makes things much easier 👍

Glad to help Stu 🤣

Nice report Stu Mark

Nice review, thanks for sharing Mark.

Not if it gets swallowed up by the sun first 😉

Not at all...saves me from asking the question

Snap! 😔

Just ordered one

Thanks for the review I've been pondering on one of these for a while....bet you have to look twice when you see the shape of it in the dark

Ooh, I haven't got one of those Jeremy, ahh sorry, I got your 34mm ES 🤣 (sorry, just changed the wording, I called you Alan 🤪

I'll second that Stu...love mine for viewing the planets, it's deffo a keeper for me

A huge outburst on the sun is about to score a "direct hit" on Earth😱 The Space Weather Prediction Center, part of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, issued a geomagnetic storm warning on Sunday for Monday and Tuesday. 😳 The warning suggested the storm could affect power grids in some areas, and satellites, but in practice these effects are likely to be minor. 🤨 This week’s storm will be at the lower end of the scale, the Met Office said. You've gotta luv the news 🙄

Yeah, it's just been to the Emerald Isle on holiday 😉
