MrsPotatoHead Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Hi. Im just introducing myself. Im a happily married, 36 year old Aussie female who lives in the UK with my husband and puppy. I've been interested in astronomy for a few years now but now want to take it further than occaisionally staring up at the night sky going 'oh wow, there's Orion's belt'. I don't have much in way of equipment, only a pair of binoculars. Apart from that, I just have always had a deep curiosity about what is beyond our planet.

Black Knight Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Binoculars are good! . I often use my binos to take advantage of short breaks in the cloud. You may interested in the following binocular astronomy site, which is being developed by an SGL member (Tetenterre, I think):BinocularSky - HomeWelcome to SGL!

Pity, a talk on Hailey sounds interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
