Hi All,
I am Rishi from India and new to stargazing. My only equipment is a BresserMessier 8” Dobsonian and I’m mostly interested in visual astronomy. I’m based out of Bangalore, and do most of my observing from my balcony/ terrace. Really looking forward to learning from more experienced folks here!
