HEY!!
MADD!!
BUT, i can't be bothered. Lolz. It's to friggin heavy. My teacher thinks we could see the strips on jupiter with that telescope but all we got was an orange dot. It's not strong enough so all we will see is an orange-yellow DOT. *sigh* If it's so bright, i'm sure u can see it without the telescope. xP~

well yeh.. cuz last time.. got all excited and everything. Lugged that huge thing around. Took 2 guys 45 mins to focus it to see an orange dot (venus). It was more exciting when it was blurry. It looked like an orange firework. It's just not strong enough. xP~ So not worth it. *sigh*
