Uranus
Hi! My first post, so hello everyone...! Just wondering, when searching for Uranus with my 8" Bintel Dob and finding the correct "general vicinity", is it possible to identify it with a low powered EP (I'm using a 32mm or 26mm 2") and then up the power? And second question!: I've had quite nice views of Saturn lately, but when I looked at Jupiter just before dawn a couple of weeks ago, it was not very impressive (I could basically see no detail at all, in fact, it looked about as good as it does through my old 60mm refractor); I thought Jupiter would show up much better than Saturn? Any ideas?
Thanks all,
Shaun
