... or a space ship. If it turns out to be alien invasion I want it stated for the record I called it first!

ha ha, was there condensation anywhere in your system? That’s a killer for me, also really bright stars seem to upset my binoculars and do that sometimes too. All part of the fun - can you remember what star it was?

i find the eyepieces on my binoculars get really smudgy quite quickly, a good (but gentle) clean works wonders!
