    Its looking good. I hope to get out with the Ed80 and do a more comprehensive effort at imaging M31. and possibly have a first crack at M81/M82.

    Yea it's great. Im only relatively new to stargazing, and all i've got are a pair of 10x50 binouclars but I still can't help but get excited when I know from the weather forecast that it will be a clear night. The Pleaides here I come... :)

    I don't see a thread about this, haven't time to check every thread, but I saw this and thought of this forum :
    http://uk.news.yahoo.com/house-size-asteroid-comes-closer-earth-moon-friday-151703970.html
    Live coverage at 9.30pm if I understand right ?

    They do mention Spaceweather.com, so I guess most of yees would have seen it announced there. :)

    Looks like a good night, clear skies and moon rising much later.
