I'm pleased to report that the seeing was better than anticipated up till about 11pm. then it all turned wobbly.

Earlier, the RCOS showed spiral structure in M94 even though it was down in the glow of Noosa! -wish I had the $ for one.... errr, and the dark site.

Those paramounts are incredible! At one stage I was at the EP when someone walked straight into the counterweight bar, and the view didnt even twitch.

This was the first totally cloud free night I've had since November.
It was a great way to break the astro-drought.
