I hadn't heard of that either Peter but it's nice to bring yourself back to the simplicity of observing our closest celestial neighbour to recognise the occasion. It does trigger the memory of seeing the moon for the first time through a telescope and for many of us, that was when we were a child. I'm looking forward to when my grandchildren are old enough so I can share their experience of doing the same for the first time. The 3.5 inch Questars are nice portable scopes which have quite a cult following. They hold their price too, I recently purchased a Meade ETX 90 with similar specs but not the quality of the Questar.
