hello

[funkysandman]

Hi,

I'm a newbie to astronomy, so I'll probably be profitting from the knowledge of others here.  I recently aquired a Celestar C8 Deluxe (circa 1997?)  and I've been learning the basics.  It has a clock drive, so I'm learning to use it get things polar aligned for some astrophotography.  I've already started shooting some Messier objects with it and spending some quality time with it at night.

Thanks!
