Oh, almost forgot, last night around 7pm, in the direction of the southern cross, to my amazment, I saw what looked like a couple of sattelites.

I was looking through my finder scope, and out of nowhere I saw one zoom past, it almost looked like it had a 'streak' behind it, about a second behind it was another one, ever so slightly below the first one. I followed them untill my scope encountered the roof of the house. I presume they were satalites as they travelled at a constant speed. What spun me out was that there was two of them, almost on the same 'trajectory'; both in my finder at once...

Another interesting 'sattelite' I saw a few days earlier. It flashed on and off every few seconds - I'm pretty sure that it wasn't an aeroplane?

Wow, amazing things up above
