You'll also get a feel for how big or small they are, how you could transport them, etc.

Plus, there'll be many friendly people there to meet, chat to and have a great time.

Even if you can only come for 1 night, I think it will be a trip well worth spending.

Failing that, we have viewing nights at Kulnura (on the central coast) every new moon and again you're more than welcome to come along and see the different telescopes in action. There's a group of 6-12 of us who meet up every month to do some observing and have some fun in each others company.

PS: Welcome to the forum! How did you hear about us?

Hi Iceman and thanks for the advice. I will try and come along to IISAC. If not the viewing night at Kulnura sounds interesting.

I found this site via Google search looking for information on Planet rise etc.

Paul
