Bob,
The planets are bright, i remember the glare from Jupiter last year without the benefit of filters was quite over powering and that was through my first telescope a 5.1" newt. I'll check out the Meade #905 thanks. I read somewhere that when Mars is at opposition it will be summer in the southern hemisphere there and the polar cap will be smaller, was that the case at the last opposition. I was wondering because looking at pictures from amateur telescopes in 2003 the polar was very clear to see. Whats the weather like in the eastern US. Its been cloudy here for about a month now. It must be because I bought this Meade LPI. Thanks Bob
Simon
