Blown Away

[spaceman101]

Hi every 1, I have recently aquired a 10x50 pair of binoculars and was absolutley blown away by what I could see compared to my 60mm telescope eg. I was able to see both the LMC and SMC in the milky way something I have never seen before and the sight was amazing.
I love it.:eyepop:

But here's hoping it is a binocular scope! :prey:

Hello, Spaceman101 - the 101 bit worries me a bit.

Are you saying that from S.A. you have never seen the S & L MCs with your unassisted vision?

Adelaide and its environs must have changed since last I visited.

Regardless, welcome to the can of worms that is IceInSpace.

Welcome to IIS spaceman :)

Binocs are really the way to go till you get your first scope. Even then they are used a lot, especilally while waiting for the scope to cool.

Cheers
