Nothing other than the screws for it went missing and I have yet to find them -
Mak-cass advice

My current scopes are the Orion goscope iii 70mm refractor and the National Geographic/ bresser NT114CF reflector . I also have the 50mm/600mm National Geographic / bresser telescope (I seldom use this one but my autistic son has indicated he wants it once the diagonal is fixed) -

I mainly enjoy planetary viewing and star clusters . I do enjoy the Orion Nebula when I get lucky enjoy to find it . Lately my daughter has had luck finding stuff without trying (so for Christmas she’s getting her own telescope ) -
I told my husband I would love to add a mak-cass to my telescopes .. that being said, I know what it is and how they basically work but would like advice on if I should go for it or go for a bigger reflector ??

NT114CF

I’ve been enjoying it. I can definitely say that I love not falling on my butt anymore . The tripod let’s me sit and stargaze through it . -
Thanks and Yes star pattern I was referring to. Never heard of that website gonna give it a try

Few weeks back I was using my scope (Orion go scope III 70 mm aperture)but I got something that greatly resembles dumbbell nebula . I’ve added unedited and edited photo. I’ve been using my 26mm plossol a lot lately . This was with my OIII filter as well. Taken and enhanced on iPhone 13 mini .

Last night I got some good shots with my iPhone 13 mini and I believe I got the Pleiades . Can anyone verify?? I been using my Orion goscope III 70 mm .

An old telescope
cutepetgroomer replied to cutepetgroomer's topic in Discussions - Scopes / Whole setups
We were paying on it .. but we’re out of state when someone was caught going into said unit so the owner of unit decided not to charge us for last few months to make up for their slack in watching it better .. someone apparently fooled a new employee that it was my husband.. wasn’t discovered until husband called to make payment as usual -

Well; we got the stuff from storage and looks like items were stolen; my husband isn’t happy about that as it was a different lock on our unit (put there by the owner of the place ) and stuff got stolen .. video game system in addition to the telescope and eyepieces ... -
You’re right about it being on the more costly side but I’ve heard it’s a good brand

I know there are 2x (which I have two of .. one came with my reflector) , 3x and 5x but I’ve never seen a 4x.. do they exist? I’m contemplating getting another set of filters so I can keep on set with my reflector and the other with my refractor ..
