On the Road Pre- Arrival Jitters! Arrival and Tea!

And so after avoiding a total disaster, vis a vie leaving part of a telescope behind,  on the road the realisation hit me that I left my mini iPad behind on the kitchen bench!

This poses the problem that my ancient SkiFi 1 device connected to my Argo Navis telescope computer will only talk to certain non android devices.

Fortunately earlier in the day I had grabbed a SkiFi 2 device which does work on android so another momentary decision like taking Winnie for walk(see previous post) saved my bacon

The upshot is okay even without it as the Argo Navis is hardwired to the Meade 12 Inch Light bridge telescope.  The SkiFi makes possible a further secondary connection to the Planetarium App Sky Safari allowing me to see where the telescope is pointed on a virtual on-screen version of the night sky.

Time for Tea and then some cloudless skies this evening (Dreaming)!
