I had a gap in the clouds tonight. The first chance to get my eight incher out.
There was a big bright star, smack band in centre field of the finder. BUT.. I havnt had a chance to calibrate the thing yet, so the chances of the main scope acidentally being aligned are a million to one.
But it didnt matter, there were a million stars to choose from and it was spectacular. I didnt get the big one I was after, but I got 999,999 of the other suckers
This is with a street full of lights ahead of me as well. Who knows what it will be like if I can get set up in the lakes or Scotland
