Get that telescope out tonight CT!!

http://earthsky.org/...-on-february-26

Aye looked pretty good last night, especially as the space station whizzed in between all three!

Space station will do it again as well tonight at exactly 18.31pm.

Worth a look. (You dont need a telescope as it will be extremely bright tonight. Even our lass thought it looked canny cool).

Excellent...I love it. Its fairly dark where I live too,  but best place to view is on Dartmoor.

The fly over has been cancelled due to fears that the station could collide with Charlie Adam's penalty.

Bah, I was just going to post telling CT to get his telescope out and have a look for Adam's shot.

I bet you're a fucking nightmare for getting carried away with things and wasting money in them, CT. ;)

Have fun with it though, there's worse hobbies.

Sold today on Ebay :lol:

Strange how the most obvious things dont get considered when you really, really want something.

1. The only time I can use it is outside when its dark and freezing.

2. Once you've looked at the moon and a few planets its dawns on you that these are not going to change any time soon.

Ah well. Next Hobby please step forward :lol:

Learn a musical instrument. It's an investment in your future and your kids' too potentially.

Blatantly saw that the moon wasn't made of cheese so packed the whole astronomy thing in there and then.

Done.

Been through the electric guitar phase (could only ever play a bad rendition of the chorus from Smoke on the water) and many organ phases from massive double deck / foot pedal jobbies to various Yamaha / Casio ones.

Come to think of it I have an awful photo somewhere of me and my large organ.
