Hello from Nottingham

Recommended Posts

Hello from a Yorkshireman living in Nottingham. I'm quite new to astronomy and have spent the last 3-4 months learning the sky with with a pair of binos, a planisphere, and an app on my tablet.


Having got the bug and of course wanting to see more, I am now the proud owner of a 10" dob (250px). In-between what seems like continuous cloud, I have managed some mind blowing views of the Moon, Jupiter, Orion Nebula and Pleiades, so plenty more to come.


There's a dent in my wallet, but I'm enjoying the knowledge on these boards & my new hobby very much.

Hi Danny and welcome to SGL, your new  scope should open up a whole new world for you, if you have now got to grips with the Constellations, have a look for Comet Lovejoy, now passing through  Andromeda, observing these once in a lifetime visitors is quite an experience. You will find details of the Comets present location in the free program "Heavens Above" Chris Peat, enjoy :)
