New Hobbie New Telescope and No Idea
Hi all,
My name is Darrin and I live in Ferny Hills, 20 minutes north of Brissie. I have just bought a new 90mm Sky Watcher Refractor from York Optical and can't wait to use it (properly).
A combination of cloud, trees and light polution (street lights) have frustrated my early attempts at star (planet) gazing but time and patience I have!
I have a few newbie questions. As this is a beginners thread is this where I go with real bonehead questions like "how do I look through a telescope?" or "whats a planet?" or do I go searching in the realm of experienced astronomers if the other forums? Alternatively, is this just a meet and greet thread?
I am looking forward to leaning on everyone's experiences and knowledge as my new hobby slowly turns into obsession!
regards
Darrin
