Things that make you go *WOW*

For me I've had several wow moments...

The obvious ones - first moon and Saturn, never forget either of those!

The double cluster through a low power in my 8" F5 newt - stunning. M104 through the large telescope at the Mcdonald Observatory :D

Recently Jupiter through the C9.25 - even though it was only with the stock 25mm Celestron EP, it was worlds apart from any view I'd ever had before - I guess it's because this is really the first scope I've looked through thats designed for high power planetary observing!

*Saturn*, it was the first thing I saw through a toy plastic telescope I had 38years ago (that number makes me feel old!). Later my first astro photo - I strapped an old brownie box camera onto a 3 inch i had been given and took a photo of Orion - and it worked! More recently Jupiter through a 14 inch I had. M42 does it for me too.
