had the new scope out last night was quite clear of cloud for a few hrs.
never looked down a scope of this aperture and was amazed how beautiful m45 is with their weird glow..awesome..just like gems suspended...anyway being new to astronomy i was floored by it.
then i scanned round some more and came across an open star cluster..i wish i knew what it was [it was too the right of the seven sisters kinda cental south if anyone knows]..as i was looking at it in awe a couple of meteors went right through my centre of eyepiece WOW.
nothing like the one they just filmed in canada tho
megawow
