I'm back!

And this time i'm here to stay. I haven't used my scope in ~3 months, and I REALLY wanna get back into this hobby.

I haven't recounted my first time under dark skies with my scope.

It was in july, at Mount Glorius. I saw-

Eta Carina
Jewel Box
Sombrero Galaxy
Other Galaxies
Mars
Jupiter
Other assorted clusters.

It was a great night

I'm doing astrophysics at school at the moment and it motivated me to start getting my scope out more.

I know about Nuclear Reactions now. :p

And I can identify 5~ constellations.



-Crash

EDIT - If you don't already know, I'm an avid artist, making it into the finals of the Young Australian Art Awards with one of my pieces. My online gallery is here.

I thought it's been a bit quiet around here.

Welcome back Charlie. Glad to hear you are going to hang in there. Try to catch up with someone in your area. The occasional get together helps to keep the spirits flying.
