I spent the evening teaching my neighborhood snooks squad about my Dobsonian Telescope, looking at Saturn and the Moon and watched a three year old's eyes/face light up when she saw Saturn for the first time.

What a gift of an evening!

*Clear Skies!

This was such a great night. We spent 5 hours looking at all sorts of objects through the Mt. Wilson 60” telescope for a friend’s birthday. Seeing Saturn was incredible! You could even make out the gaps in the rings.

🤓 My Dobsonian 10" Telescope just arrived. Total assembly in 30 min, not bad but the directions need better pics!

Can't wait to collimate the mirrors tonight for my first view of the moon (closeup!)
