Skywatcher 10 Inch Reflector Arrives!


This is the latest addition to the Family. I got home at 11pm last night and got it straight out of the box and set up in the backyard on my EQ6 Mount. As Jupiter is the flavour of the week with Anthony(Bird) Wesley's discovery of an impact scar I went straight there. I didn't see the scar but I was treated to an Egress of presumably Io from transit along with it's shadow still about half through it's transit.
Must be the week for black marks on Jupiter, only positively speaking that is!
