I'll be hosting a fellow IIS member this coming Saturday night to help him out with his new scope. I would be able to host one or two more (plus mum or dad as the case be) keen beginners, and meet some fellow IIS members.
This will kick of around 9:30pm from my place in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs.
I will go through how to set-up your scope, collimate, what you will see through your scope, and finding stuff in Sydney's sky.
What to bring:
* Your scope and bits and pieces
* Your OWN Mozzie repelant roll-on - Sprays are a no-no with scopes.
*Some type of long sleeve shirt or jumper and beanie - it can get cold if dew comes in (even in Summer).
* Binoculars if you have a pair, no matter what size.
PM me your interest (if not sure how to use Private Message system, make a post here and I'll get in touch). Sorry for the short notice. If this goes well, might do some more.
Mental.
