Hi OBMY

I’ve seen (easily) Sirius, Alpha Centauri, Spica, Acrux, Rigel and a few others through my Vixen 4” f9 refractor using the Skysensor 2000 GoTo.

It is a beautiful sight, seeing the diamond like star set against a bright blue background.

Venus and Mercury are easy too, as is Jupiter and to a lesser extent, Saturn. I don’t think that I have yet tried for Mars.

Cheers

Dennis
