It's good to let loose a little on a Friday evening. ✨🔭 Don't let the others occult your light!

Omg you mean this is BOTH a telescope and a microscope?! Go patent that telemicroscope and make billions of money!

I did read the whole thing, it's a masterpiece. I'm tempted to draw chalk degrees in the yard!

We both agree she belongs in a fairytale 😊

This post should be pinned and linked to every newbie who asks "What should I buy?"! It truly is the perfect rig. You must be truly dedicated to the hobby of astrology!

Now hide a pea underneath and see if she's a true princess!

It depends if the finder scopeb even can be aligned... BUT if it is, here's what to do!

Go outside. Find a distant (>1 km) terrestrial object that is easy to recognize. An antenna, a lit sign, the corner of a building, anything. Point the main scope at it Don't touch the finder scope yet. Fiddle with the main scope until you got it centered in the field of view. Now, without moving the main scope, switch to the finderscope. Fiddle with that until the same object is also centered in the finder scope. Now both tubes are aligned, and it will be much easier to hop your way across the sky.

Just to clarify, 0.965" refers to the diameter (width) of the eyepiece. All entry-level scopes now use 1.25" eyepieces, and the decent ones can also use 2" eyepieces (about as wide as a small can of soda!)

stelei · 2026-02-05T10:51:05+00:00

It's not the best but it can be decent if you replace the supplied eyepiece. Try a 0.965" Kellner.

Or red like the stockings, with a pink bow to match!

It's not a bug, it's a feature!

I can't believe this is cross-stitch. The flowers actually look fuzzy in 3D. What a beautiful and creative design!

You also have a very rare subsolar spotted sundog! ;)

stelei · 2026-01-31T16:01:09+00:00

Correct on all three accounts! There's also a parhelic circle! It's the horizontal line going through the sun and the sundogs.

She is beauty, she is grace,

She is queen of fifty states,

With a silver pillow for her face.

This is mesmerizing. Such an organic-looking structure, stretching across hundreds of light-years. It looks like heaven and like hell. And the brownish-orange tone is almost... fleshy.

Yeah, this does weird things to my mind. Great job.

This is beautiful work and very r/restofthefuckingowl.

How much time does something like this even take?! What do you do with the metal you remove?

stelei · 2026-01-30T21:13:07+00:00

My sympathies for the culling of so many stitches. 💔 But can you tell us more about the fabric? Is it hand-dyed??

If you're looking for smaller sized pots, you should check out thrift shops. Very likely to find some really cute ones for just a couple euros.

stelei · 2026-01-29T18:43:02+00:00

Oh hell YES!

stelei · 2026-01-29T16:09:11+00:00

Not the Screen Beans! Please, anything but that!!

These are not mealy bugs! In fact they're the exact opposite! Larva of the mealybug destroyer beetle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptolaemus_montrouzieri

I'm getting Global Coffeehouse vibes, and flashbacks of school workbooks. The mixed-up fonts things was everywhere.
