Hi all! How I have only just discovered this forum, I do not know but thankfully I have. I am a total newbie with only a pair of binoculars. Any advice to get me started, it would be much appreciated. Also, if anyone is from Sheffield, UK that knows their stuff and wouldn't mind me picking their brains (in person), do let me know. PS. My initial interest is trying to sight the new Moon of each lunar month. I have heard of CCD's being used to catch a glimpse of the new moon in broad daylight (way before moonset which generally always takes place close to sunset at the start of each lunar month it appears.) Anyone who has experience of this, please shout out! Thanks
