Also while observing Jupiter I saw a .... Shooting star. It was size of Sirius! I was gobsmacked. And after 5 min my brother spotted another one and it was fast and small. But i tracked it with 10mm eyepiece. AWESOME..
And that is only after 30 min out! Will be lookig at some nebule now. And I'll post the pics later, probably tomorrow.

Thanks

Tom
