Clear Night, Jupiter a Cold Beer and Quiet...

What more can someone ask for. Although the weather here in the outskirts of London is akin to taking up Deep sea diving rather than Deep Sky watching.

I have been blessed with some clear nights the last 2 weeks in which I have been captivated by Jupiter and how well I can see it with my 130EQ (I really understand now the need for more aperture).

Using the SharpCap software and some tinkering with my laptop I have even managed to get the wife to voew it with me. Now hows that for romance after 23 years!

I AM HOOKED.....and have already prepared the family and my wallet to seek out new, larger equipment (Can't wait to get access to the second hand site)

Just wanted to post something and say thanks to all the people who really do like to help out us Newbies....Cheers

You are in for some fun :-) Looks like you have aperture fever..... Good luck with the hunting for bargains. You might want to check out astrobuysell. An excellent source of astro goodies. Also astroboot for the odd knick-knacks you might need. Enjoy!
