So it looks like Sunday night is going to be clear.

I have a wide angle lens I want to try out on the winter Milky Way. Oh, please be clear!

@Twilight Luna, if it's clear Sunday night, I'll give Luna a big squeezing hug!

Oh Twilight.

@Lord Valtasar, yeah. I was expecting it to be about her fear of quesadillas. Guess we can add ladybugs to the list.

@Arc Flash, Say, don't you have a 10 Gigawatt laser? I need to burn some clouds.

I've had a lot on my mind lately, especially with my plans to buy some land in a couple years. I find moving to be stressful, since I moved a lot when I was a kid. I've lived in the same general area for about 2 decades, so it will be tough but I'm ready to move on.
100 acres of pine trees and class 3 dark skies is calling my name.

@Lord Midnight Madness, I live in a fairly rural area but I don't own the woods surrounding me. The only internet I can get here is satellite, which is what I'm currently using. It works
@Twilight Luna, Oh believe me. I'd love to, but I can't move too far away from work. There's some really dark skies within an hour or so drive from my work, so that's probably what I'll go for.

@Stone Cold Steve Tuna @Phosphor
A decent number of observatories (usually smaller ones) do free open nights, you just show up, and the staff will just point the scope at anything interesting in view, and give little informal lectures/information tidbits on what you're looking at. Worth doing a google search for anything local to you to see if there's anything like that.
I'd also recommend Elite Dangerous, Steve. Bit of a steep learning curve, but they went to town with the accuracy on scale/distances and physics, so it's a great way to see celestial objects up close in a more personal way than Space Engine (cuz you actually have a character/avatar, as opposed to just being a disembodied camera).

@Stone Cold Steve Tuna I *want* to like KSP, but trying to make a truly unique and creative ship just goes to hell because the physics engine is still too wonky. Thus all I can seem to to is make a ship that *should* work in theory, and is pretty as hell, but flies like a dead fish taped to a brick -_-
