came back from sas meeting... It was brilliant and very helpful. GOt my first look at the tarantula nebula and an interesting lecture about the jupiters moon io. Will be going back next month definitely. Met Eric There... Hello!!
I was hoping to get there but had an early flight to Sydney Sunday morning (up at 4am!!). So I spent Saturday evening in the backyard with my sons looking through the scope instead. I will be trying to get to February's meeting which I believe is on the 27 February (please correct me if i'm wrong!)
I haven't been looking at iceinspace for a while - life has been busy. But I'm another SAS member who lurks here occasionally. My Event Horizon arrived in the in-box yesterday. I was at the January meeting, and had the 12" dob which I need more practice using - if only the weather would co-operate. And my work. And family life. And ... well you get the idea. See you there on the 27th hopefully.
