Hi all,
I joined up because we've just purchased a telescope for our daughter's birthday, however my husband and I were both keen to get one and wanted something that is a bit more powerful than a total beginner scope, so we went with the Saxon F1149 EQ reflector. Her birthday isn't until the end of the month so I'm hoping to learn more about how to use it etc before then!
I did a course in astronomy a few years ago, but long enough that I've forgotten pretty much everything other than not to shine a bright torch at the star map if you want to see anything for the rest of the night
Look forward to getting to know you all!
