carnageg Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Hello all! I swore by accident on my first post so i'm trying again! Just bought a Celestron 130eq last week and I'm brand new to the sky stuff, very little idea of what I'm doing so I figured this was a good place to start. Can't wait for the clouds to clear and get a good view of something exciting. Had an eyeful of Altair and a very blurred Mars on my first attempt. Need to get out of the city and avoid the LP. Cheers all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpittman35 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Welcome to the forum. These guys are a great help. They have already answered several questions for me in my short stint here. I have the same scope and the clouds have been a nightmare for me as well. It's a pain toting all of the equipment out in hopes the clouds will have moved out by nightfall. Never know unless you try.
