What and how does a Cheshire eyepiece do? Is is better than a laser collimator?

How does Orion's new 150mm f/12 MCT measure up?

The ZS 110 triplet APO has been in WO’s program for a while and after reading some reviews we decided to examine the Black Lady ourselves. Unfortunately, the Dutch weather is nothing to be proud of. So we waited and waited, until one evening…

Take it from a man who has never been a binoviewer fan, this is a binoviewer for people who don't like binoviewers...

The Coronado PST provides access to the exciting world of h-alpha solar astronomy at a reasonable price.

Ultimate Wide-field Eyepiece??? Maybe...

Most of us consider the inside of an expensive telescope sacred ground with factory only admission. I’ve been a little scared of opening one up but the perfect opportunity came along recently.

After nearly 16 years of owning and using apochromatic refractor telescope from Astro-Physics (128 Starfire, 105 Traveller, 130EDFS, 155EDFS), TMB (80mm, 105mm) and Takahashi (FS60-C, TOA130, FSQ106), I thought it was time to give a newbie on the market of APO refractors a try.

A seemingly ill matched OTA/mount combination turns out to be an absolute winner on all counts.

Do you have a telescope but don’t know what to look at, or where to find it? Are you interested in learning about the objects in the night sky? For the amateur astronomer, nothing is more important than learning your way around the universe, and this book is one of the best places to start.
