      @james4pluto My dad used to have a telescope, and I’ve seen Mars, Venus, Saturn and Jupiter – but I don’t remember Mercury… Have you?

      Hi james4pluto!
      Nope, I haven’t even ever used a telescope! I really want to but because I have always lived in cities, there has been too much light pollution. Come to think of it, I really should join an astronomy club & have a go 🙂

      Hi james. No the only planet I have seen is Venus!

      Hiya James – nope can’t say I have. I’ve recently looked at Jupiter with its moons around it.
