      Hi Reggie

      Sadly the weather has been pretty terrible since the 28th Feb so didn't get to see them at closest. I dod get to see the Aurora from Lowestoft on the 28th which is extremely rare from Latitude 52 north. Did you get any photos of the conjunction?

      Best regards George

      I'm glad you asked, lol. I posted these in the imaging forum:

      Thanks Reggie. I don't remember seeing these before but old age is definitely making me a bit forgetful! 🤣

      Excellent work to capture the Jovian moons. Huge dynamic range there, which is always tricky to deal with.  I bet you are pleased with these :icon_salut: I  would be!

      Hope you are keeping well and getting better weather than we are. If the snow holds off until after the weekend, we shall go to the Astronomy Show in Kettering this coming Saturday.  It is a long drive for us oldies, being halfway across the UK from where we live on the East Coast. Our daughter lives nearer to Kettering than we do, so we will stop a night with her and her family on the way.

      Best regards from me and Mrs H.
