Oh well maybe tomorrow

I just got back from the Newcastle Astronomical Societies viewing night. There wasn't much to see but clouds and rain. Scott (tornado33) got a few shots in between the clouds and the night was a bit disappointing. I hope we have better luck tomorrow with the weather.

Hi all
Was his car polished to 1/10th wave accuracy peak to valley Shall we aluminise and overcoat it now
The bits of sky we did see were quite dark, washed clean by the rain and also the cloud was probably blocking a lot of the light pollution from the ground

1/10th wave accuracy peak to valley, I'd better start making that mirror cell for the car bonnet then!
