A longer story.

@SimonPJelley Awesome - what time was that at? ... and do you know roughly how long it was visible for? I was up around pre-dawn and could not see it.... so wonder if my timing was off, or if I need to get away from some obscuring houses

@piccalilli_ fwiw - my son responded positively to the reading times, as it gave him confidence that each was a manageable chunk of time and focus I’m sure that the cadence is familiar or him now, so removing won’t be a problem

@Hicksdesign Payhip is a nice simple way to start - hooked in into Stripe, for accounting continuity if things scale. (Previously used Gumroad - back then it forced payments into USD, but hopefully they fixed that)

Full Moon and Jupiter and Saturn in close proximity Rather chilly but enjoyable night stargazing. (Moon single shot w/ reducer, Jupiter live stacked with SharpCap + ZWO) #stargazing #FullMoon #Jupiter #astro https://t.co/kSocF8hoWP

Well done Em ❤️ Every year since 2002 she’s run the #raceforlife in memory of family & friends who have been lost to cancer. Covid meant her 19th run was a solo event, with just the 3 of us to cheer her on. Jack found his @raceforlife 2019 medal which Zoe presented to her x https://t.co/f4NnuHOq84

@magnayn Well I have had a Picard hairstyle for some time now, .... my son is 13, which must be close to Ensign Crusher’s age in S1E1... so let’s see how often I can drop in “make it so” before he notices ;)

@nathanchantrell ... I’m 47 now, and thinking I am the same age as Patrick back then... makes me feel oddly optimistic about the year ahead!

Just learned that Patrick Stewart was ages 47 when TNG started filming (though the character he played, Jean Luc Picard was aged 59)

Jack (13) has been watching Big Bang Theory, we just got to the Will Wheaton episode.... one thing led to another, and now we about to boldly embark on a journey into Star Trek TNG! https://t.co/lPXvbTr42V

@adamauckland Btw - If you are still on Phantom Menace then that is episode 1... but was released 4th.... Much of the recommendations I got were to watch in release order, ie starting with A New Hope (which was released 1st, but was Episode 4 in story order) ...I went round in circles on this

@adamauckland 4,5,6,1,2,3,7,8,9 ^ we are doing the same and opted for this order.... not sure yet where to slot in Rogue One and Solo...

Oh my goodness it feels good to have #F1 back on @NOWTV . It feels like the most ‘normal’ thing I’ve had for 3 months. Certainly looks like the FIA have put in place some properly well considered #covid safety processes too. https://t.co/B4MfzCSNi0

I’d rather be asleep.... but having a mostly clear night for stargazing is good compensation. (Saturn and Jupiter are bottom centre.) https://t.co/VCBIvL5zCx

It’s a Raspberry Pi-based self contained control computer for much of the hardware, which then, via the iOS app, gives a potentially v nice iPad UI into it all .... in principle... if I can figure it out.

Getting stared with the new ASIair with the ZWO camera, and it’s like going back to my first night with the telescope again. Took me such a long time to figure out the setup and focusing, and finally I can see a fuzzy image of the moon. https://t.co/rPAE0h1wfj

The Dumbell Nebula As an #astronewbie my second attempt at stacking. A sequence of 12 shot of 4-s duration on DSLR/scope taken 2 nights ago and stacked last night. #Astrophotography #Astronomy #stargazing https://t.co/ubqenP2gky

@hellogeri This was first trial with/without reducer, I reckon I might be close to just squeezing a full moon in one shot. (Shot with canon 750d crop sensor) https://t.co/peI8uMmzE7

@hellogeri The reducer gives a 0.7x zoom so I can fit the whole moon in (hopefully) - also should help me get wider deep space shots. Still on my 2nd hand eBay crop sensor camera - but loving having a DSLR Did I see you are looking for a new camera?
