I had always loved the night sky, even as a young boy. But the thing that really got me into amateur astronomy was when I was in the US Navy during the middle '70's. One night out in the South Pacific we were right in the middle of a "dead calm". The sea was like glass. The sky was a wonder to behold. I swear the Milky Way actually cast shadows!! I went up to the signal bridge and swung the ships "big eyes" (six inch weather proof binos) onto the summer milky way. My friends it was a truly jaw dropping experience and is something I will remember for the rest of my days. I hope that at least one more time in my life I'll be able to see the night sky like that again in similar conditions. Big binos rule!!
