Yippee! My article just appeared in the latest issue of Amateur Astronomy Magazine, issue #96! "An Easy Fix for Astigmatism." It covers ways to eliminate objectionable astigmatism from your telescope, especially big Dobsonians. Tom

Congrats Thomas,

I have built in astigmatism in my eyes so all i have to do is rotate my head and somehow cancel out the astigmatism in the scope right?
