Re: Newbie...late starter...Jupiter!
Hi Kah Wai,
Thanks for sharing.
Like you I picked up astronomy because I drove my wife and son to an astronomy presentation. Subsequently, the help from this community is instrumental in me sustaining my interest. You are tuned in to the right channel
Hope to hear more from you.
