I never had anything fancy for a scope. Saturn was smaller than a erasure. I went out all the time though! Miss it lots. I still check out naked eye viewing though.

Level 7

those were the days, spent hours setting up two telescope, one refractor and one reflector, only for the clouds to obscure everything at night, only to revert to astronomy computer simulations, anyone remember Nine Planets by the English guy Patrick whats his name from Star Trek, the next generation /?

Patrick Stewart

Of course! Set to Gustav Holst's orchestral suite The Planets, Mars (bringer of War) always felt so ominous and yet that's where we want to go!

@LaMariposa Of course, Holst's famous suite has just 7 movements, as Earth was appropriately ignored, and poor Pluto, which is no longer considered a planet, had yet to be discovered.
