Telescope / astronomy

[apache]

The missus felt sorry for me staring at the moon for hours through binos, so bought me this as an early chrimbo pressie.

Any astronomers out there care to share hints / tips / point me in the direction of cool things to look at (apart from the dirty neighbour across the street?)

Pointing it out the window is a good start...

There are some really good computer programs out there to find stuff, I used to be into it but as with most things, I have no time to spare anymore, even bikes a lot of the time now as well. Nice bass and nice speakers by the way!
