Hi Smokey,
Welcome to INS. I remember my first night looking through a telescope it was a 60mm x 900 refreactor scope i bought of a mate, I was all alone in the back yard waiting for saturn to rise when I started to notice all the stars that were out there and thought this is a good hobby, Well to cut a long story short i looked in finder for saturn and found it and when i looked in the scope
I thought this is not a great hobby but a fantastic one.
Hence 2 scopes later im still having a ball with this stuff.
