Well that was a good evening
I managed to get out with my telescope for this first time in a few months and managed to get it to locate using the Synscan first time using the 2 star alignment. Next time will be to get true polar alignment ready for my venture in to astrophotographers!
Also, had a great meteorite that went from approximately the N horizon to S horizon. Definitely not space junk as I've seen that before. Could it have been from the Quadrant meteor shower? I know that's in the northern hemisphere but maybe it 'wandered off course'!
Jupiter was pretty good tonight as well even with the moon being so bright. I could see 4 moons and 2 light brown bands. All in all a very good night.
