half-filled Venus (Blue Mountains)

Man, it's easy with a highly-tuned GOTO telescope to spot a half-filled "first-quarter" Venus in the daylight. Huge through the main 'scope with the 18mm.

The Paramount and computer seem to be working better today. They were off by half a degree last night. I was getting frustrated trying to find objects.

Today, Venus was almost dead centre.

Oh. Venus will be fun at the Solar Observing Session tomorrow...
