Well, it was a decent early evening sky here in Canberra again. I was hoping to be out with new setup but ama few pieces short.
A couple of eyepieces did arrive, so i had some fun comparing the stock 20mm eyepiece in the loaner scope to the 13mm super plossl GSO and the 8-24 baader zoom. It was a good time! While looking at orion neb with the 13mm a satellite of some kind streaked past and i was able to follow it and adjusted focus to pin it before it went behind my house.
In terms of comparing eyepieces, the zoom was fun and the 13mm good, but it will take some time before i can really see a difference. The eye relief on both was a huge step up, though! Found the baader really comfortable.
Hope evwryone else got some good viewing and/or imaging time in!
