Sydney Observatory's Festival of the Stars

Hey guys,

Just checking whether anyone was at Sydney Observatory on Friday or Saturday night, the festival was great.

David Malin gave a really interesting talk about the atmosphere and light pollution, and Jupiter was showing off its brilliance for all to see!

And once again I was struck with awe at seeing some of the 20-30" scopes, or at least I think they were that big. There was also a 16" Meade lightbridge and cassegrain that you just knew cost a pretty penny.
