Hi all

Just registered, I am new to astronomy and just bought a coronado pst which arrived yesterday, hopefully ordering a 10" skywatcher dobsonian later this week.

Cheers Chris

Hi All

Thanks for the welcome to forums, I did look at the sky at night forum first but there seems to more life on mars..

Hello Chris and good luck with the PST, do you intend it for visual or imaging?

Hi Richard, I intend to use the PST for both viewing and imaging but I have yet to learn how to process the images with only having had the scope for a day and a half ( no use today due to the cloud cover. Maybe I should give red bull stratos a call to borrow their balloon.)

below was done holding the cheapo digital camera next to the eyepiece yesterday.

Cheer Chris

HI Chris and welcome to the forum. Look like you've got some nice boxes heading your way and I'm sure you won't be disappointed when you finally press them into service!

Wishing you clear skies on their arrival

James

[ChrisRichmond]

Cant wait James, unfortunately I will have to havent got the dob yet and forcast is for cloudy weather until saturday so unless bbc weather is wrong cant use the pst until then or maybe later.

had a tasco as a kid and thought it was ace, just cant understand why its taken me thirty odd years to realise it when I always feel enriched looking at the stars on a clear night, just seems so beautiful and peaceful even without a telescope.

Cheers Chris

Hi and welcome!

And nice little collection of darlings you're building up there. A PST and 10" dob could potentially keep you occupied the whole day and night, weather permitting.
