stevieb Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Just now, Rudy said: You stole a dealers jeans? I may have took in a stash of pills 'just in case' I was that fucked on acid I couldn't remember giving or receiving cash. I stood for 5 minutes mesmerised looking at a taxis indicator when I got out of the event. Ace times. Sensible as fuck these days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancWanderer Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Saw it last night. Thought it was too bright but all of a sudden it appeared. Amazing even though it was just a fast moving dot in the sky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted July 13, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 13, 2020 Comet Neowise visible between now and end of month. Don’t worry, if you miss it You’ll get another chance in 7000 years. For best opportunity, look at the low horizon towards the North with decent binoculars or telescope and from a field away from streetlights.

Probably Venus or Jupiter? They are the ones easiest to spot from earth. I can see either Ursa Minor or Ursa Major too (not sure which one) so it could be Polaris? Either way it's amazing. Wish I knew more about the night sky. Went through a stage if wanting to buy a telescope but it seems daft when I live in a cloudy Astley Bridge and not an always clear Arizona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
