If anybody intrested in astronomy like me, if you look at the moon now you will see 2 objects that look like stars near it, the brighter one is the planet Venus and the dimmer one is the Planet Jupiter
SWEET MARY MOTHER OF GOD, i can feel the warmth in my belly
i've been looking at them for the past couple of weeks. the moon looks epic tonight also can see the dark side of it.

*goes and puts on pink floyd*
dark side of the moon - pink floyd is the single most scary song in the world when under influence

dont do it man
you got a telescope? i used to have a 12inch (giggidy) but had to get rid of it. looking at saturn was amazing.
no not at the moment mate cant afford


but yeah Saturn is amazing to look at, saw jupiter at a proper astronomey club telescope ( you know with the sliding roof and all that), times it perfect as Europa, ganymede, io and Callisto were either side of it in a line
they should make a telescope app

Also where we get 0 light pollution here on the island = winning!

go to app store and search planets the app icon is a picture of a planet with a ring
would try with the iphone but think there's no chance it would pick anything up..
it uses gps and the motion of the phone to tell you what you are looking at.
Ben, think he was talking about a ZOOOOOOM to look at the stars, those maps are quite cool anywho!
makes you wonder whats on the dark side ninja
