Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

Thoroughly enjoyable night, many thanks to Aubrey for showing me T Pyxis, a beautiful deep red carbon star that can give a man a taste for more.
I really liked Martin's images taken with his 80mm apo, he managed to capture some amazing details with exposures of a minute or so.
The general banter was great and hopefully it will not be long before the weather provides us with another clear night.

I really enjoyed last nigh. Aubrey's carbon star was incredible,makes me wanna start the hunting for more and probably i have never seen as much detail in Christmas tree nebula when i looked thru Paul's scope.Really blew me away,its just shows that aperture rules
On down side it was shame about the mounting plate for Gliese and the wind,was really looking forward having a go at 150mm APO.And Keith's 16" beast...well it was a pleasure just looking at it Maybe next time the wind is going to play ball with us.
Oh yes when is the next session
