Whats your favourite object to view...

Jupiter's pretty big - even binos will show it as a disc and of course the four biggest moons, and even a small scope will show banding and the Great Red Spot. I'm not sure how long we have to wait for it to get higher in the sky!

The double cluster in Perseus with either 25X100 binoculars or with a wide field low magnification eyepiece such as the Moonfish. The amount of stars that fills the field of view is overwhelming and it's impossible to take your eyes away.

Given a second choice I would have to say the shadows of craters and mountains strecthed across the plains of the moon.

Yeah i never imagined i'd see the red spot on Jupiter but apparantly i will be able...........as well as all the other things you mentioned. I'm not going anywhere so as long as it takes...i'll be waiting.

Lunartic.....just reading up on the double cluster in Perseus...there are about 600 stars visible in the same FOV using a low power EP to capture both clusters in the same FOV.

600 stars in one FOV................does sound pretty amazing.

Oh yes, the Double Cluster is most revealing in a 'scope. Here's a shot I took last year....

WOW...that sure is purdy. I love the red stars toards the centre. Next clear night (tonight looks promising) i'm gonna point my scope in its direction.

WOW again....so many amazing pics online of the double. Defo on my list tonight
