Astro and Puppy?? Buy and Sell

[CGolder]

Anyone else notice a sudden appearance of puppy's on AB&S?

Where do i insert my Eyepiece? does it take 2" or do i need an adapter?

Where do i insert my Eyepiece?

I could suggest a few places but the puppy will work it out for itself.

Yes i noticed that this morning...Same Person selling African Grey Parrots and an array of Dog breeds!!...Strange.

Probably a scammer.

As for where to insert the eyepiece on a puppy, probably on a vet's endoscope, although you might need an adapter. However, I don't think this is the intended use of astro puppies. I think they can be trained to fetch fallen meteorites, alert you to special astro event and sniff out a good deal on Astrobuy&sell.

I guess if they are decendents of the dogs used in the Russian Space program way back then he has a fair shout for selling them on AB+S

A bit light I think .... try an EQ6.

If you use a pillar rather than a tripod, concrete will resist puppy pee longer than steel.

I had a puppy once but the goto was completely useless.

[CGolder]

U need to train it first to use goto

So if i decide to sell my dog....

Do i also have to sell a scope?

[brianb]

A scope is for life, not just for Christmas.

Don't forget to clean up after it.

I dont know. I seem to buy a new scope every Christmas. Dont think i will this year as i need to buy a turkey. I could just eat the dog i guess and buy a scope also.

LOL.;.

Amateurs! Puppies are not optical devices, they are telescope accessories. By alternately immitating a speed bump and a speeder they aid in slowing motion in their area to prevent accidental bumping of the scope. They are also excellent thermal foot warmers. Any dropped item will be found easily even in pitch black conditions, though may not be returned in the same condition as found. Another use is to mitigate the sticky fingered nature of children, as the puppy's fur takes the initial abuse.

just make sure whatever EP you use you look at Sirius first. It is of course the most obvious naked eye feature of Canis Major!

[Beulah]

I'm surprised at the relatively cheap price of these puppies...I was quoted £800 for a Weimaraner pup.

But since it's a puppy, surely you'll want to wait for Orion's yet to be designed Procyon eyepieces to look at Canis Minor.

Of course, once you waited long enough, you might well get Sirrus, because by then the puppy would've grown up to become a full size dog.

[ponytale]

should i wear gloves when inserting a 2" eypiece and a 2x barlow? what level of focus can i expect when viewing canis major?

[LukeSkywatcher]

Gloves?

OK even i'm confused now.

[Donkeyears]

Can I use a Catseye to collimate my puppy, or will that lead to more trouble?

your user name made me chuckle
