Hi Michelle welcome to SGL from Doncaster!

1. Has Light pollution got worse over the last 30 - 50 years. If so what effect has this had on your Astronomy? -- Yes,definitely with light pollution in and around Doncaster i've noticed a greater difficulty in viewing the stars. 2. How have you or haven't you tackled the problem of light Pollution ? -- Tried contacting Doncaster MBC re street lighting and pollution never heard a thing. What with cutbacks etc not exactly a high priority by the look of it unfortunately. 3. What effect does light pollution have on your telescope ? ( How have you got around this EG filter kits) -- Intend

Hi and welcome

Wow!! very nice well done mate, what equipment were you using may i ask? If i can one day get shots like that i'd be very happy.

A power cut and clear skies would be welcome though the incoming weather makes the clear skies highly unlikely

Good news for Sheffield be nice if neighboring Doncaster do it as well but i'm not holding my breath

There... I'm leaving the mount outside tonight...

i'd be tempted to use a motion sensor alarm hidden on your neq6 if you had one just to be on the safe side. If they can carry heavy rolls of cable, metal drain covers etc, they can pinch that too Emad -
When X Factor (or the S Factor as i call it, figure it out ) comes on i insist my wife records it and views when i'm not around, i detest that show and others like it. The death of decent drama programmes as far as i'm concerned. Failing that i'd go look a painted wall drying its far more interesting

Think I have gone mad through lack of sleep

I can not believe it the camera playback glitched a few seconds before liftoff, when the picture caught up it was already off the pad grr!
