I'm looking forward to seeing the pics
I'm looking forward to the people I bought it from actually shipping me the Nikon adaptor that I ordered... :)
wow that looks fantastic!
looking forward to seeing the pics!
Amazing, I always wanted a telescope as a kid. My Dad decided to let me put a bet on the grand national horse race (he put the bet on for me) when I was seven years old. My horse won, his came second... therefore I managed to get a small telescope then! I also bought Chesny Hawkes- I am the one and only single (god IM OLD)
Oooh! That should do the trick. I want pictures of armstrong's moon boot imprints. Then Beagle 2.
That looks likes a mean piece of kit, can't wait for the pics!
that's beautiful
aparently there is a mirror on the moon that you can send a lazer beam up to if you know the co-ordinates and it gets reflected back. dont know why one would want to do thet but hey!
yup. the apollo program left it there. it's there so we can accurately measure how far away the moon is, and, more importantly, how fast it's retreating from the earth (a few mm a year, iirc)
You're gonna have fun with that!
I've got one in the attic, gathering dust, must see about a camera adapter for it and wheel it out into the garden.
Mat...Nice piece of kit. Gonna be alot of fun with that.
Joker...If you're not using it I'll happily take it off your hands on an extended loan :o)
tried earlier tonight, but conditions weren't the best. no imaging yet, but the f-mount adaptor should be here friday, along with the serial cable to connect it's controller up to a laptop.
looks very professional, love to see those pics.
Good luck with the "seeing" - love the scope!
