Orionids

While my scope sits in a box, waiting for the new GP-D2 to arrive from Japan, I decided to get back to basics and spent several hours with a pair 8X binoculars watching the Orionid meteors screaming by, Jupiter and the continual criss-crossing of satellites and space junk overhead.

No polar alignment to worry about, no cables, no batteries running low, just me and the beautiful dark sky over the Snowy Mountains .............. heaven !!!!
