Just came home. Saw mars and Demios, the moon. Really cool stuff. The pleiads and jupiter as eall. And some other stuff.. Cold as ice though...................

Are you sure you have seen Deimos? Deimos is very faint (12.4 at closest approach), and I have never spotted it in my 8" scope, even though it is theoretically in range its capabilities, magnitude wise. It typically lost in the glare of nearby Mars.
