morning all
i went out last night and had a go at jupiter saw two of its moons quite close also saw europa but unfortunatley no luck with the shadow
reasonable viewing at 100x mag but anything higher wasnt any good hard to focus at anything higher ?
plus i saw something else i cant explain i went and had a look in the east just below the milky way if that makes any sense (or there abouts) i saw a cluster of stars in a rough circle and just below a dark patch with one or two (that i saw) very faint stars in it and just below to the right i saw a orange star. very interesting. i was wondering what that black area could be ?
i was going to have a look at mars this morning but the curse happened a gorgeous cloud cover (mutter mutter
)
