Hi All, I too did some observing. For the first time I went out with my son, who is seven years old. We started Saturday evening at 22:30 CET and ended Sunday morning at 00:30 CET. In total we saw 10 meteors. We also saw the Milkey Way and The Andromeda nebulae. Al in al it was a very nice...

Hi there, I also own the Etrex Vista, the grey model. It is very good This one has 24 mb of memory, so you can put in a map. It also has an electronic compass and altimeter/barometer. They also run on rechargeable batteries, so that's a plus in my opinion. I won't go into the greens...

There sure is a difference. With the 396-HP (the orange one) you cannot saw plastic like material and bones, but for the rest you can do the same things as with the laplander. The popularity of the laplander, in my opinion, is based on several TV/book appearances. For myself I use the...

Hi there, As an avid amateur astronomer I've been seeing the AB many times. When the activity is very high, AB can be seen in southern France and Northern Spain, so England is a definitive "go", It can be seen in your country... A good start for checking AB is www.spaceweather.com...
