New Here, Old in Other Places

[Humanoido]

Hi All!

This is my 1st time here.

I need help.

I have a bad case of aperture fever.

My 1st telescope was 1-inch.

Then I had others, 3, 4.25, 8, 12.5, 40, 52

and now.... I'm a little embarrassed to say.

I stopped building a 72-inch telescope for

a larger one. I completed it and will post

image links here.

It's a synthetic telescope made from

components in space and on the Earth.

Thanks sincerely for taking a look.

Hi and welcome to SGL.

Not quite sure how a synthetic scope works. You'll have to try and explain it some time.

Hi and welcome to sgl and the forums

Greetings....I'd be very interested to know where you keep this 24 metre scope......a scope 3 times the size of Keck must have been hard to keep secret.

Hi and welcome to the forum

[marshy123]

Intriguing stuff, look forward to hearing more. Welcome.

[RobH]

I see that your scope is made from earthly bits and also bits from space.....and 3 times the size of Keck.

I reckon that you might just be having us on, or you are, in fact, a superbeing from the future
