Hi to all, first I'd like to apologise for buying my first telescope ( sky watcher 130p ) since then the skies have been filled with clouds or rain.

I hope to learn my way round the nights skies with help from this site.

Oh so it's your fault then!!!

Welcome to SGL, glad that you found us. If you want to learn the sky you can download some good planetarium programmes, such as Stellarium, which will help you navigate. Also the book 'Turn left at orion' is very good for you visual guys.

Look forward to seeing you about

Hi Chris welcome to the lounge,

hope the weather is kind to you soon, nothing worse than

not being able to use your scope, fingers crossed it will be

sometime this year.

Good Luck and Clear Sky's

Thanks for the warm welcome, I'm just flicking through " turn left at Orion" seems to be every thing i need at the moment. I've got some of the Phillips guides too, so i should be ok to get started.

ps Swag72 great images!!!
