TELESCOPES/ASTRONOMY * 2
    #26781984 - 06/25/20 12:24 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

OK, here is a thread on telescopes and astronomy. I just go this scope:
https://www.amazon.com/Celestron-22065-Master-Refractor-Telescope/dp/B01E5DVONO

Looked good for a beginner like me. I chose the refractor over the reflector due to having to adjust the reflector every once in a while. Plus it'll be mainly nighttime viewing. I'm not sure about how it will perform in the city though. I'll try both city and rural and post results.

This is what I’m getting. Like 95% sure. https://www.skywatcherusa.com/collections/esprit-ed-triplet-apo-refractors/products/esprit-150mm-ed-triplet-apo-refractor

I’m pretty sure I convinced my wife to road trip to the new property once it’s here to camp for a bit and get this thing some use.

Otherwise I may need to take a cabin trip soon.

You get a decent view of the moon and craters but I couldnt see Venus in the Pleiades for shit. I live in the city so a lot of light pollution


At least it looks pretty in the window :shrug:

Damn!

150mm is legit. I have a 90mm Maede Refractor and its pretty awesome. Wish I had a 100mm or bigger :eek:

Nice pic Trex! Mine was about $350 so we are now Tele-buddies! :grin:

I literally cannot think of a single more depressing topic than space. Entropy? The heat death? As every second goes by we are more and more disconnected with the universe. The unlimited potential of the universe doesnt even compare to those things. Yeah sure theres some cool looking things out there......


--------------------
Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

space is cool imho but i think what ichugwindex means is that WE ARE TEH SPACE and to realize yallz full potential n shit anyway i luv space i only get to see a few stars around here cuz of teh light pollution and whatnot but it'z enough 4 me and moon is always extremely clear out here it be nice to even get a closer look with binoculars and stuff

The mere concept of our current understanding of space depresses me. A reflection of all our lives being futile. That's what I learned about space. Unless theres an edge of space that everything's going to eventually bounce off of. Is entropy just a theory?

I think about entropy a lot when tripping.

It’s honestly the main topic.

Oh shit, yeah it looks pretty huge.

City Astronomy is no beuno, unless you live in a place with special city lights or have a epic view.

Theres probably a cleaning kit you can buy for it.

Yeah, reassembly would be kinda freaky for sure :eek:

The biggest downside of mirrored teles is the maintenance. But they can see farther, so its a trade off.
