I bought a second hand telescope. Took it with me but just could not find the moon with it as there was too much glare and ambient light coz I was on the Newcastle foreshore. Got some cool pics with my phone. Just got home and put the telescope in my backyard and bam. My eyepiece is filled with the moon 🤦 could of watched the whole bloody eclipse from my backyard lol

I'm in Australia on the east coast. Planning to go to Newcastle beach tonight right up on the hill and I can get a full 360 view of the horizon, I'm so excited as I've never seen a total lunar eclipse before 😍
