Some cool shots here. Love the Auroras, Jonathan. Some day, some day....

I was out last night at the home of one of our retired professors. He has just a slight interest in tracking near earth objects as you can see. His telescopes range from 24" to 50", with four in all, each in their own building. All are computer controlled and all images are sent to servers at the university via microwave from a tower in his yard. This professor tracked over 22,000 objects last year. The next closest tracking station, owned by NASA, tracked just 8,000.





Someone on another board commented on the "red ring" L telescopes. While I was out there, I set up my paltry 400mm 5.6 and 1.4x TC for a moonshot.
