rory Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 hello. im a newbie with no experience of astronomy other than years of armchair interest. ive decided to get up and actually get out there. after buying a 90mm celestron e/q refractor and a couple of books ,i thought a forum for reference and advice in my new hobby should be on the list too. so here i am . so far managed over the first 2 weeks ,good jupiter and moons viewing and a look at the orion nebulae (m?)..told you i was new.anyways...enough from me.
