Cool Matt , glad the eyepiece kit arrived and you find it ok .
You really cant go wrong with Meade gear , except their famous WAIT ! .
On the moon the terminator is the place to be , I was there last night and from here in Darwin it was spectular , up to 200x or more , nice .
By the way what scope do you have ?
I have only seen Antaries (green , it was to ) double once and that was in my 10 inch reflector on a good night in NZ a few years ago , yea its green , as Kermit the frog sings ,,, 'Its not easy being green ' , I think Kermit was an amateaur astronomer like us ?? ha ha .
Keep up the observing mate , it gets better and better .
Especially with a good eyepiece set you now have . .
your mate up north ,
Brian.
