Hi,
A group of us using Andrew Robertson’s Mak-Cass telescope observed Venus at around 15.45hrs yesterday afternoon during an astro camp at Haw Wood farm in Suffolk. Venus was at Inferior Conjunction at the time and I was really suprised how easy it was to see in the telescope set again the pale blue sky.
This was a first for me and something I will remember …thanks Andrew.
