Catalpa Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I forgot. [:@] Duh.However, I've recently re-discovered a general astronomy site that I like which accepts precise locations and then shows the sky at night including satellite and space station passes, 7 day predictions etc for that exact location - so for anyone interested...http://www.heavens-above.com/You enter your UK or French (or both) village, town or coordinates and off you go. You can save multiple locations so you wouldn't have to reconfigure a laptop or travelling pc when you change location. It's not a graphics heavy site so it's good for dialup users too.

Russethouse Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 Mr RH spent a few happy hours making up a viewing gizmo from a kit - luckily the cloud cleared a little and he did get a reasonable view, I'll ask him to send me the pics.
