1. Look for Saturn...
It's closer than ever and the rings are at a great angle...

2. Are you the one who
recently got a telescope?

*sigh* I want one.

What kind of telescope do you have?

I was on here jabbering about Saturn last night.. I confess that was me....

There's just something about looking out there and seeing it with your own eye...

Looking directly at that small object out there yourself with the tiny moons and the faint cloud bands is way cooler than seeing a huge Hubble panorama.

I wonder if there some galaxies you can make out with a telecope.

Edit:
"What kind of telescope do you have? "
Galileo 5" newtonian reflector (from QVC actually)
