Hi;
A little off topic but associated to observing. We are about to get our roof re-tiled and thought we'd take the opportunity to get a Velux window fitted. The roofer mentioned two types (centre swivel or top tilt openings).
Which would be best or is there another type of window I could consider.
The window will be fitted to the South side of the house.
Thanks
Viewing From the Attic
in Getting Started With Observing

We had decided on a velux window to offer some natural light into what is a reasonable attic space. The telescope mostly sits in a cupboard and rarely gets used so the idea of having set up ready would be advantageous albeit given the problems outlined above (many of which I had found already on this forum).
I'll look for a top opening anyway and it may be good for some moon shots for the Grand kids :-)
Thanks and I'll post back later in the year with any results.
