Sydney Observatory 101

Hi all!

Well I'm just one week away from my trip to Sydney and boy am I excited!!!
I'm planning to pay a visit to the Observatory and from what I've seen on their website they offer night time viewing to the public (?)
What's the deal here? I mean do they let you operate the scopes or do they have a pre-arranged schedule of what to look at and they show you?
It 'll be a heck of an experience for sure cause I've never been to an observatory, much less look through a really BIG telescope!
(any chance I can take my SPC900 and barlow along for some imaging? )
Any recommendations from people who have been there?


Thanks alot!
See you next week!
