First light with 130p :-)

[SionR25]

Hi everyone,

My heritage 130p arrived today from flo. As soon as it got dark i set up the scope, checked stellarium and saw jupiter was out so I turned to that. I saw jupiter as a round orange blob (hoping the lemses i bought can show some banding :-)) and i also saw 4 moons, really impressive. Then the clouds started to roll in . They were only the thin clouds so it halted my attempts to find m42 so I instead looked at the moon. Again very impressive, loved the detail on the craters.

Hoping that it clears soon so I can get back out there and thanks again for all your advice :-)
