ABORT ABORT

Just a short update. It was clear for a while last night, and I started to setup. Ran through the normal setup routine, started slewing the scope fo Mirfak... Looked up to align, and the clouds had come in. I cleared up. Bit of a disappointment as I'd noted three targets to point the camera at too. Ah well, always another night.

On a different note. Last week, whilst out and about with a group I pointed out a Mag -5 flare. Since then one of the others has been looking out for passing Flares and the ISS. Spotting a fair few. Perhaps this is the start of another interested in the heavens above.
