hahaha nah i got about 2hours of viewing maybe. It just seems to only ever be clear right after sunset. And to be honest I'm starting to get used to the gear setup now. Last night i was fully up and running in no more than 10mins

Had around a 6 hour session last night. Broadcast for about 4 of them...90% of it fighting the clouds! Wind was brutal all night. Full moon too. Had lots of fun when the clouds played ball tho Here is a wee pick and mix of objects from my adventures. Heres a star cluster, a galaxy, a nebula, a planet and a moon First pic is half of the double cluster in Cassiopeia. Notice the coma round the edges...was using the 3.3 reducer. It got removed after that lol. Jupiter video Moon Video
