As I get older I get less ambitious in my hobbies. Tonight I set out to gaze at #comet #C2020F3. It's cold 🥶 though and I have an excellent sleeping bag in the #shelter.. #warm

.. thus I'm now cozy inside my sleeping bag gazing at classic #orion, #mars and friends. The comet (behind the back wall of the shelter) can wait 🙂 🔭

Does the #fediverse / #mastodon have an #astronomy community with its own hashtags or bot accounts?

If so, a question: despite claims by #SpaceX I find that during observing with both pure eyes and minor magnification (binoculars, small dobsonion) I still very often see the #starlink satellites. As they are in trains they become a feature that is very hard to ignore as my eyes are drawn to them.

Is this just me (maybe my brain really likes pattern following) or is this bothering most people?

@Pepijn

what you say is true from what i recall from astronomy crowd from sad bird site.

like you posts - thank you 🖖🏽

btw unrelated - do #Denmark #Danish peoples like #SeasideHotel? started saying ya fa etc. look forward to visiting one day 🥰

@BeTongLen First time I hear of that show.. I'm not one to ask about TV and movie's though as I barely watch any nor have a strong interest in it. According to my partner it's very popular in Denmark :-)

Edit: oh ffs "we should watch it together"" was just said in the room..I guess I'll have an opinion on it in the near future!

@Pepijn

i was on hiatus from TV for many years and now enjoying brit and other shows w kids. thank you to your partner 😃
