hello all

[Dark Sky]

Im new to the forum. My intrest in astronomy started last year when my dad purchased a telescope (skywatcher 80ed pro +eq5 goto). Since then I got my first telescope this Christmas (skywatcher star travel 80) and have used it as much as is possible with the weather. I intend to upgrade to a bigger scope and eq mount soon to further my astro photography skills. This website has been a great fountain of knowledge and has helped me a great deal so ive signed up to say thankyou and hope in time I can return the favour

Hello and welcome to the forum Dark Sky

It is great to see young people taking up this brilliant hobby. I look forward to reading an observation report or two

Well I'm bidding on a explorer 200p and motorized Eq5 on eBay at the minute so I hope to post some reports soon, if I win that is. I've only photographed Jupiter, the moon and the orion nebula so far but I'm setting myself a goal of seeing the supernova in m82.

Welcome to SGL. Star Travel scopes punch well above their weight and are an excellent starter as well as a keeper.
