Listening to you guys every month makes me long for the days of Sky at Night when Sir Patrick was still with us and you too would appear in episodes. Great memories.
Always inspiring listening to you guys…until a glance at the forecast reminds of reality of the UK skies. Over the last 12 months I’ve done my least imaging and observing since I started
Spotted Mercury 2 nights last week.My tip is use wide field binoculars,mine are 2x40 Helios ones, and locate Jupiter and then head down and you'll come to Mercury just above the horizon at dusk.I don't know about a bad run of weather for the first part of 2024,the rain began in July 2023 and hardly a single day without rain until February.Febuary and March have had significant gaps in the rain.... awful stuff!
Please remember how Moore did it; it wasn’t like this. ;too niche whereas Patrick managed to make us all like it! Sorry guys, but it’s true. Stop with all the giggling!!
