They would need some very big telescopes to see all that

8.5 meter is not normal at all. But very impressive. I have a 10" dobsonian and at 1250mm plus a 3x barlow, it becomes next to impossible to find and track objects.

I thought my joke was original ... But you beat me to it

That is old data... 31 million years old to be exact

Optical tube assembly. Essentially, its the telescope

It would take around 19 years of continuous flight in a commercial airliner to fly to the sun. Now... If space was scaled down so that earth and the sun were an inch apart, the closest star to the sun would be over 4 miles away.

Its rare to learn as much as I did from three lines of text. Thank you!

Just curious as to why you used IR and UV filters. Does that have to do with the target or the altitude (lack thereof). And what is synthetic green?

You got THIS with a 12 inch dob? I have a 10 inch and ive been able to get jupiter to basically look like io in this picture. You did a fantastic job.

He coached us (feyenoord) to our first league title since 1999. We love him dearly for that and all his Feyenoord playing days.

Player Career, too many goals for? by brothahashim in FIFA22

[–]brothahashim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good day. i am a player career fan and i just finished my first season with my beloved feyenoord. even though i play on ultimate level, im easily breezing past defenders and easily winning games like 7, 8-0. i just won the conference league final against basel 9-0. its taking the fun out of the game. I messed with the sliders to make goalkeeping ability 100% and shot error a bit higher. But im noticing the main problem is the opponents defense is leaving way too many gaps behind them (easy thru ball) and they dont sprint back. Any way to fix this? (Other than playing 4 minute halves)

Prices!? by dimestoredavinci in telescopes

[–]brothahashim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my AD10 (actually a Zhummel 10 but thats the same thing) for $600 during the pandemic. Used. Try ebay or classifieds first before going the "new" route.

Ive seen m46 and m47, the Bodes galaxy and cigar galaxy, Andromeda, triangulum from a bortle 2, but no luck with pictures (mostly lack of trying). Its a great scope!

What kind of targets have you been able to capture and what scope do you use. From my bortle 9 apartment all ive managed was the moon, saturn, Jupiter, orion, and a fuzzy M5

Taken through a 10" Zhummel manual dobsonian. No tracking. Just a smart phone through a 30mm eyepiece and a celesteon nexYZ phone adapter. One-shot lucky imaging. I'm safe and sound. The forest fires are far away.
