I'm pretty excited about what lies ahead - alawys something new to look forward to.

Yes, "astronomical darkness" isn't reached until roughly an hour and a half after sunset. As we approach the solstice that will creep to about 10pm.
As a relative newb to these skies, it seems to me that there is a lot more here to get excited about with a sensible sized scope
