Guest Apophis Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Hi everyone, I'm Shane from Skegness aka Apophis (my favourite asteroid). I met some of you at EMS2 last night. I have recently taken up amateur astronomy with my grandad. We're using a Skywatcher Explorer 200mm reflector with a HEQ5 mount. Despite being complete novices we're looking forward to observing and hopefully eventually photographing the many wonders of the universe. Look forward to meeting some of you. Stay safe.
