Mars tonight (ng)

Amazing App I use called Sky View,free basic,and think couple quid for much more advanced,gives brilliant positions of planets,stars etc
Yep we use that too. surprised me to find out that what we thought were stars were actually planets we could see. I didn't fully believe it until i looked through the telescope and could see it more clearly, and spot the moons etc.

My mate's got a telescope a few months ago to encourage his young daughter who showed a vague interest in astronomy. He's captured some excellent pictures of the Moon recently. I'll let him know about mars, if he doesn't know already.
