Help from member
Thank you to acropolite for his assistance with my telescope. He lives in the same area as me and came around to my home and spent a bit of time outside with me showing me his telescope. Some of the objects I could see that he showed me, I had no idea about. Please don't ask me to name them or remember what they were called but I know visually in the sky where they are and I will get to know them eventually.
We started looking at Orion's Belt and then moved to a small cluster of stars approx NW, then a nebula and other bits and pieces (sounds vague I know).
Anyway, I am grateful for the experience and if everyone on this forum is as helpful, I think I'm in a good place.
I look forward to getting out more (other tell me I need to do this now but I don't think they mean looking at the stars) and see what else I can find.
Thanks again Phil and appreciate your support and everyone else who has given or offered advice on the forum so far.
Regards
Scott
