Eyepiece caps

Anyone know where to get those plastic caps for the bottoms of 1.25" eyepieces? Mine keep disappearing, and I would like to buy a few extra to keep the "eyepiece gnomes" at bay.

I haven't found a cheap solution for 1-1/4 in eyepieces, but Edge Shaving Gel caps fit my 2 in. eyepieces. A little long though.

Beautiful !! What was it like to manually guide for those long exposures?

Telescope for low temperatures

Posted By Mark Strollo

I got a posting a month or two ago on a new Yahoo group on "Extreme Astonomy." I believe it was starting up to address the problems of our hobby at low temperatures.

Peter,

Your photo deserves to be sent to S&T for their monthly photo section. Very instructional.
