I had my telescope out at a cycling camping weekend not long ago and some of the kids were excited about looking at Saturn. They loved it and called their mums over. Two of them came over reluctantly had a quick look and their comments were "Oh I thought it would look a bit better than that", and "oh it isnt very big is it?" then walked off again. I felt a bit deflated! Luckily a complete stranger came up later and asked to have a look and his response was "wow that is amazing" he walked off a few steps and came back saying "wow that is really really amazing, thank you so much".
That was pretty much my reaction when I first looked through my telescope, totally blown away. I always thought saturn would be a winner for non astronomy fans but I guess I was wrong!
