Haven't got one yet O'Neill, currently considering getting one though. This was taken from a bridge camera last night. Would like to try and get a picture that defines Jupiter a bit more but don't think it is possible.

Was there somebody throwing rocks last night? It was mentioned on RTE News this morning?

Jeepers. I'm getting nothing like that with the telescope. Can you get Uranus and Neptune? They're out south around 10-midnight.

Haven't tried yet. Depending on how clear the skies are tonight I will give it a go.

Getting pictures of Uranus, but not clear enough, need to do something with manual focus apparently, it is a difficult planet to track.

Good call there Baloney. Got off me arse and the woolies on. That's another one off the list - Jupiter in all its glory with 4 moons in tow, crystal clear. Will sleep better now.
