Seesat are largely reponsible for my pursuit of satellite watching,'
I would entirely agree with this - the descriptive and often beautiful
descriptions given here are of greater value to me than a list of
numbers. I've nothing against professional observations, they just
don't do it for me - and I'm sure newcomers to this fascinating
subject would agree.
Which leads me to ask - is this list for pros or newbies? If its only
for pros then that should be made clear otherwise why can't anyone
post observations if they want to?
New people are not going to get interested if all they see are reams
of numbers scrolling in front of their eyes - and shouldn't we be
encouraging interest in this amazing topic?
