Last night I got to see Saturn, its rings and moons.
(sidewalk astro event, Cambridge, ma)
Even though it appears way small, it is a whole lot different than quality pics, a sense of tangible reality right there.
Any amateur astronomers here..?
You would think some to the .edu crowd would have access to decent observatories..?
I now have access to an area where light pollution is very minimal and plan on getting into it soon! Working on a binocular suspension system right now... I will make a two-way pivot head out of a chop saw base parts.
I would love to find a front surface mirror, like 4 x10 for not too much money, for a tabletop setup as well...
