Hi i'm omkar joined BAS just 3 days back. I'm a bangalorean. Working as s/w engineer. I'm kinda new to astronomy(sort of renewing my long lost interest!!). I got an opportunity to go out with Akarsh and Amar to Hosahalli and view some Messiers today. It was an amazing experience and night well spent!! I thank both these enthusiasts for their patience in explaining a lot of concepts about astronomy and showing all those messiers.
