My observatory construction is underway... yeah!

Posted By Paul Maxson
Tyler,

That's really impressive!! I love watching as the observatories go up. Keep us up to date. I can't help but think that nagging question...."did I forget something" just before the cement gets poured. From the looks of it, you sure got it covered!

Saturn Anyone?

Posted By Paul Maxson
Jeff,

I actually took a look at Saturn the other day. It looked nice but wasn't quite high enough for imaging yet. My plans are to start imaging around Thanksgiving time. I'm looking forward to it!

New Orion Dob's Any thoughts?

Posted By Paul Maxson
I saw those! My first thought was that since I live in an Air Force flight path, I'd need to put red lights on the eyepiece end to avoid jet wash! **GRIN!!**

I agree with Uncle Rod, if I only had a couple hundred grand sitting around doing nothing....**sigh**

I do wonder if, especially the 50", will have a similar fate as the Coulter 29.

Clear skies!

Alan,

That prom is HUGE! I have an image of it and am trying to figure out the best way to present it (colour-wise). I love your method.
