hi iceman is it to late to order a copy of the 2006 handbook
i am very, very new to astronomy...but understand that this book is a necessity.
so let me know if i could still get one from you.
thanks

The red light pen can be used to take notes at the telescope (or binoculars). You can record what you see and the red light does not spoil your dark adaption ie you aren't blinded when you look into your eyepiece or binoculars.
Very handy if you are going to record your observations in a log book.
Just a note - while I'm away I won't be able to confirm payments, and books will be sent out early-mid November (they haven't been sent by Quasar yet).
Pens will be send mid-late November, as they haven't arrived yet.
Yep $43 will be fine John. They'll come in 2 separate envelopes though as they won't fit in the 1.
FYI everyone:
I've sent 24 books out today (to those whose payment has been confirmed), and in the envelope I included a few IceInSpace stickers for your.. umm.. loving and enjoyment??
There's still many books left, so please follow the instructions in the first post of this thread and get your Astronomy 2006 (and stickers!).
Another FYI: There's a small paragraph about IceInSpace in the back of Astronomy 2006 - yet another reason to buy it!
Please note: Those who have also paid for red-light pens, the pens have not been received yet so they will come separately in a few weeks time.
I got mine today wow, really impressed with the information inside. Thanks for this Mike, truely appreciate you arranging this mass purchase for us. And the stickers are a welcome site, I always felt my Dob was missing something, now its complete.
Thank you for your efforts,my book arrived today and I am very impressed with it.
Must admit I much preffered the layout of the sky maps,they used a couple of years ago.
The "Ice In Space" stickers will find a good mounting spot also.
Thanks Again.
Regards.John
