WOW factor

Took my two grandsons out last night ,one seven and the other eight. Focused my 15x70s on the moon and then lowered the tripod to their height. Result, two enormous wows and two more people who know the name and the beauty of tycho....

Nice report. It is great getting kids involved. I often get clusters of kids round my scope or bins when I am camping. Once they have done their WOW and/or little war-dance, they scoot off to tell their parents (who often look seriously bemused when their kids run in to their caravan or tent shouting they have seen craters/another planet/ another galaxy.

All was going well til the youngest said "why has the moon got a yellow and blue rim " From the mouths of babes !!
