Hey that sounds great! I'm sure you'll be taking a scope or two out with you. I have been getting some mad looks at mars in the mornings. Now that it is starting to get above the murk of the horizon. Have you seen it this time around?

regards

Hey Rob,

Just found out that it is on the Sunshine Coast towards Esk and further. Spoke to her in more detail and she said it is approximately 3 hours or longer. As for scopes, my C6 will be out there as will my other buddy John's 6"f/5. Might also bring my superb RFT Orion 80ST and my 15x70's. Its going to be fun, fun, fun. Hopefully the weather cooperates though.

And no I have not seen Mars as yet From my balcony which overlooks to the west and the north, I get obstructed views of the south and east (unless I am on my second balcony which is connected to the masterbedroom where my wifey sleeps
