I tried to take a peek at Mars last night through the telescope, but it didn’t look much bigger than with the naked eye. Hopefully tonight will be better. I went outside last night around dusk, and was looking at airliners flying overhead. I was actually able to make out the Delta logo on one of them, which was pretty cool. Planes are extremely hard to follow with a telescope–they travel the entire viewing width in about a second.
Some guy called me last night asking about my car. He said he was going to stop by today and take a look at it, but never showed up. Some Japanese college students took it for a spin last week, but I never heard back from them either. I hope I sell that thing soon…I desperately need a new car.
