studying

No chance Calin!
been studying the void of south celestial pole to best prepare for the alignment i might try tonight if we get clear skies.
I also fitted (makeshift) a polar scope (northern hemisphere) into my mount (bought one that doesnt quite fit, with a nice internal map including polaris....handy!) ...I'll have to get a good one that fits the CG5 at some point...
Also been looking at my little hill behind the house with a neighbour who owns a chainsaw...I think it'll be a good spot for an "observatory"...his skills with the chainsaw will come in handy to lose two trees that slightly block the celestial view...
doesnt look like i'm about to hand over my scope.
But as I say: I accept all donations!
