Lol

Lol a spreadsheet is exactly how i have my astro buys and sells stored. However, after having spend about 20k im still in the green numbers for about 10K😌. Magic.

One of the most anti climax unboxings ever seen😆

they chose an anagram of misrate for a reason. this thing isn't going anywhere

And connect devices like Asiair direct to your mount.

Its everywhere i think. Sold a camera last month. It never arrived. Thanks DHL😘. Camera incl package was about 1,5 kg. They offered €3,50 p/kg compensation

Seeing threads like this get locked would make me sad/mad/disappointed

are temperatures measured on Mars? sun activity on the ISS? you don't read much about this but I often wonder if our warming parallels locations outside the Earth. If that is the case, it is of course not the intention that it will be published!😉

Yes i saw the video. But thought that scraping sound wasnt there when the motor was disconnected. Anyway, did you already swap the motors to check if its the motor or cable?

Maybe check the worm wheel? Sounds like metal scraping

There is a nice 100ed sw equinox for sale on abs.

Im glad you like it Fedele

The kepler 4?? should have them. I would try stacking 2 6000000000x barlows when looking for it. I dont think other planets in our solar system have them. Although im not sure about uranus or neptune.

There is a tutorial on youtube how to remove the lens cover😉

Very very very nice!

+1 for searching a used scope. Maybe a bit above your budget but in the end totally zero costs. They sell for the same price as you paid for. At least. You might find a more satisfying reflector for the same price as a smaller and probably less satisfying refractor

Lol. I remember the first time i plugged in the power cable of my goto mount. Carefully turned the switch to ON. Staring at those dangerous arrow buttons om the hand controller. The first presses were just hard enough to really not making contact at all. Turn everything off to quadruple check what im doing. And those sessions last for some days to finally be able to press that arrow button hard enough to make contact and hear the motors making noise. To realize 2 months later that i really need to upgrade to a bigger mount, scope, camera, asiair etc because all feels like toys and i want more and bigger and faster. You all know how it feels😅

Great design and work😍. He is healed from aperture fever

Its like watching a show from the 90’s. His voice and outfit i guess. But very nice to hear his opinion. And yes we miss Cuiv the lazy(adhd) Geek. +1 for Anton Petrov, always short educational clips. AstroBackyard has become a sort of TellSell. AstroBiscuit is very fun to watch Chuck, the not so technical sunAddict. We recently witnessed some domestic arguments while he didnt realize his liveStream was active😅.

Something like this company is working on. Basically instead of 2 inch thick glass, they use a fraction of that glass and reinforce it with a second material, probably some fibre like carbon or similar. it makes the most expensive and heavy telescope part expensive and lightweight. Lets hope that expensive part will change to affordable http://www.compositemirrors.com/meter-class-telescopes/

Lets hope composite mirrors get more affordable soon. That would change the market a lot. On the other hand, it would be the only thing that gets more affordable🫤

Lol. he looked like an experienced pilot. But wow, what a country to look at the sky at night

And watch this great footage.
