The filter worked a treat guys i could see the moon without any issue and it does bring defination out i tried it on jupiter and it was nice on that too bringing out the clouds Ps anyone find the weather weird? Teleacop was soaking wet last night and even tho its summer nights have been cold for me and not to dark.

Thanks for the recommendations everyone bought a ND96 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Meade-4000-Moon-Filter-ND96/dp/B00020XAK0 And it will hopefully arrive in time for some nice clear night's Thursday and friday Maybe summer will finally start now lol

Yeh from a dark site. Thats a really good list! -
Hey all, just wondering if you all can tell me visibly easy to find good targets to observe this month? Im currently thinking globuler clusters since im told they are easier to find in comparison to galaxies but like to know what you all think.

I used the telescope last night and i saw m13 fine the difference between an 8inch and a 6 inch aptiture is huge.. far better than my celesteon 150 for detail I think il just leave it the way it is seems to work fine all this is to complicated for me tbh 😂 Thanks everyone

Cant turn the screws to adjust spider vain screws are far to tight

Update looks like some guy from the swansea astronomy centre will pop down within 2 weeks to look at it, hes owned a newtonian he thinks he can do it.. he said it should take 10 minutes. I rather not touch this secondary anymore i feel im making it worse Not sure about the vanes nervous to tamper with it now
