My first time seeing the milky way. Amazing!

No better time like now to observer the sun, short of an eclipse. There were some interesting sun spots and of course, the transit of Mercury.

Great day for solar observing! This is the first time I've been able to observe Mercury as I have a poor view of the horizon. Watching it move across the sun was particularly interesting as it's hard to believe something can orbit that fast.

Bode's galaxy was a much more visible object versus M82. More round and less distinct, though.

Very faint visually, I wouldn't have found it if not for m81. It was clearly elongated and needed averted viewing to see.
