I was once asked something similar:
Don't you run out of things to see?
What is the point of looking at the same things each year?
Getting out with a scope or binoculars helps me feel connected with the Cosmos and ponder the unknown. The night sky does change and there is always something new to observe when you get the chance to travel to darker skies. It is a privilege to observe special astronomical events, especially those which occur once in a lifetime.
