... then peace will guide the planets.
Oh wait, this is a thread about checking out the night sky and not signing along to Aquarius from Hair?

Thanks, Steve. That was definitely worth taking a look.

Very cool. I noticed Venus aligned with the Moon last night, quite a sight. I wonder if this has any significance in a galaxy far, far away.....

That's no moon...it's a SPACE STATION!

I took this digital pic of the Moon and Venus on Tuesday night. What a sight.
I had the telescope out last night and looked at the moon, Jupiter and Venus, but couldn't see Saturn, Mercury or Mars because they were too low.

Have any of you guys ever seen Jupiter through a really good telescope? I have and it's amazing. You can see about 6 of it's moons. I've been meaning to get into astronomy for about 7 years, but have never had the time or the money for that matter, to really get into it.

I can see 4 of Jupiter's moons through my 'scope (a 4-odd inch Tasco reflector I've had about 10 years). Bigger telescopes are buku bucks!

Someday I hope to move out to the country so I can do more serious stargazing. When I can afford to do that I should be able to afford a buku bucks telescope!
