looking good ......

[beamish]

.....for tonight ! Gonna be a Mak night !!!!

[starstalker]

yep just gearing up now!

[Digz]

I hope this stays true.

Just looked on Sat24 and there is a cloud over us at the moment which is dropping some rain but looks clear after that. Hope the rain stops soon so I can get the scope out to cool.

Fingers crossed!!

[beamish]

Aye ! Maks out cooling as I type, clouds are a clearing and alls well with the world

[Worzsel]

Cloud cover here and the maks in the kitchen looking forlorn, wishing it was out on the patio cooling down. I was hoping to have a peep at Jupiter before I went to bed but it's looking unlikely.

Hope you all have a great night

[george7378]

I'm ready too - I'm hoping to photograph the ISS for the first time.

[JonH]

All set up and now waiting for Polaris to show. It's looking good over Somerset. Hope it's clear for the rest of you.

[beamish]

It could so easily all turn a bit Pete Tong !

[atharh]

Looking good over North London...last few clouds fading away...

[LukeSkywatcher]

Slightly fissed as a part right now so not planning any observing tonight.

[JonH]

Glad to hear it Paul. Have a good evening.

[simon84]

Pretty good here in Essex, big chunk of cloud over to the SW but its clearing. Might have a go at Jupiter tonight and then have a muck about imaging the moon with my new baader zoom/canon eos setup.....

[zedds]

Crystal clear over Staffordshire at the moment. The 200 is out and cooling for the first time in a good while.

Here`s to a good night everyone.

[Beulah]

Very tired, up at 5am and did a 12 mile hill run...but I am gonna drag the scope out tonight...as DSO fan, it'll have to be Uranus, Jupiter and the moon tonight, as it's going to be pretty well lit out there.

Lay-in tommorow morning!!

Last night all i saw was the Moon and Joop and damn they were close by each other.

[george7378]

I got some great ISS shots! Now to process them...

[skmc1955]

just stepped outside (21:23) and something like the iss was going over from west to east, but according to heavens above the next iss pass is 21:53. am I missing something here?!

The first pass for me was 21:19 - it will have been the ISS.

[Worzsel]

Ive just seen the ISS SSW-SSE, very bight and seemed slower than i have seen it before although that may well have been the Merlot.

[skmc1955]

Hi George, I think the heavens above times must be GMt and I,m still on BST. My mistake:icon_confused:

[george7378]

Probably - my next one is 22:53, so that will be your 21:53. I'm really happy that my photos show the pass, but my best is blurred I may as well post it:

[Catanonia]

looking good in Cheshire, just started by 15min subs on a nebula

[beamish]

Guys avoid the confusion, look here, set your location and times are given locally

Human Space Flight (HSF) - Sightings

[Ben Ritchie]

Fantastic seeing here, so hope you planetary guys are out in force. Good Jupiter night if this keeps going.
