Nothing like your telescope. Can you try to get some images of Jupiter and it's moons with your set-up? Bet you it will be awesome! Cheers OP.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 29559660 Argentina12/10/2012 05:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are 2 very bright shiny "stars" in the sky these nights. Can you check them out and let us know what they are? One is very bright yellowish, I suspect it being a planet since it is so clear and strong, and it seems almost like a very tiny moon. The other one blinks and changes colors, white, yellow, blue, red.. Also very big and clear compared to the other stars in the night sky. |

When you see stars straight up in the sky they are much stable. |
