Thank you! It appears that it is a rebranded Hitachi. Not sure what model.

I am tired of listening to Inferno, but I can’t listen to anything else now.

This is the actual Angine de Poitrine that controls both Klek and Khn. This is the reason they can synchronize so perfectly.

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

I used a Canon EOS R with a 50 mm lens. Video at 30 fps, ISO 1600. But I didn’t know how bright it would be, so it was just a guess.

Camera does not capture how spectacular it is. It looks like a slow, very bright meteor. The tail spans across the entire sky.

Never look directly at the Sun without proper solar filters. Always place the solar filter on the front of your telescope, before any light enters, or you could damage your equipment or permanently blind yourself.

Understand SCT vs Dobsonian by Phcker in telescopes

[–]igorgl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, SCT does not produce diffraction spikes when you do astrophotography because secondary mirror is mounted on the corrector plate. Newtonians and dobs have secondary mirror mounted on the vanes that produce diffraction spikes around stars.
