a bit an*l, but it's the stars that twinkle and not planets Alan, It's a lay way of telling them apart:smilewinkgrin:

Not that I would know Doug, I thought planets and stars all shone depending on light cast upon them 😳

Cheers Doug, I'm glad I'm not the only one interested in the heavens. Mrs Phil just said, " so there are other whack jobs, its not just you" I love astronomy. Vast place the Universe. 1st time I have seen Mars live

Nice one doug, I'm just an amateur, read more than do. But just had the binocs on the moon and the God of war. Need to get some real kit for my old age.

not ideal viewing with a full moon, too much light pollution being thrown off moon, but still a nice effect

Look at the full moon, on the left of it you will see an orangy glowing dot - that's Mars... about the distance of your fist away from the moon if you stretch out your arm in that direction, just don't let anyone see you... :lol:

It depends on the atmospheric conditions I think, Mars twinkled at me two earlier in the evening, but I woke up at 4:30am , thinking it was 7am it was so light, with the moonlight right into the window, reflected of the fresh thick snow, absolutely beautiful, and it was so clear, Mars just 'shone' no twinkle, quite reddy/orangey indeed... very nice.. and then I went back to bed :lol:
