    Hi!

    Hi Rob, Welcome to SGL glad you joined us 😊
  4. Victim of a Necro post LOL I type on a phone, so I missed it. Just assumed it was recent. Oh well, πŸ˜‚
  5. Wait! Not sure if this has been mentioned yet; There is a tiny Allen set screw on the knob, maybe 2, loosen, and pull the knob back about 1mm. It is probably rubbing against the rear of the scope. This is VERY common, they push it on way too hard at the factory. My 127, and my C6 had this issue.
  6. WOW! 😲 That is really nice! Your beautiful image on a shirt. Love it!
  7. I received a new Rigel Quick Finder today

    Hello again !

    Welcome back Chris I had also took a break, but the sky is always there
  9. Welcome Dave, thanks for joining SGL This is a good site and I highly recommend the book https://www.nexstarsite.com/
  10. Wow, the C5 is being discontinued I bet they will keep it around in packages like the SE and Astro Fi As an OTA, it was over priced and rather large as a spotter IMHO
  11. WOW! Stunning to say the least, Eris Thanks for sharing πŸ™‚
  12. Welcome, and thanks for joining us 😊
  13. It's nice to see the Sun 🌞 in all it's glory this time of year
  14. He can claim all he wants with his laser thingys. But I lay claims with my PXR-5 space craft LOL
  15. Sadly the seeing has not be well around here I have been getting rather blurry views. However I have been enjoying everyone's images πŸ™‚
  16. Very nice πŸ‘ I want an H- Alpha scope in the darndest way.
  17. Very nice Doug! Thanks for sharing that amazing image πŸ‘
  18. Weather still looking reasonably good
  19. You are correct. Apollo 18 was ready to go. Then it was literally gutted and the Saturn V was made into Skylab.
  20. Sadly, I couldn't agree more I remember the Moon landings as a child, they said we would have humans on Mars by 2000 or before. Musk is probably our only hope.
  21. I personally do not believe we were going to send humans to the Moon in 3.5 years. The can keeps getting kicked...
  22. You received some real good advice here. An 8" Dob is a great scope. What makes it great besides it's light gathering ability is the solid base. No flimsy tripod/mount to deal with
