Default News: Astronomers plan giant telescope

But, who will provide such a scope?

If Celestron, will they insist on using the HD Field Tripod?

If Meade, will they offer the $99 eyepiece special?

If Astro-Physics, will it be wait listed 7 years?

If Televue, will there be a clamshell included as part of the basic
package? Ball cap?

If Starmaster, will Rick Singmaster spend hours over the phone walking
the scientists through proper collimation?

If Stellarvue, will it use one of those nifty red dot finders with the
big window?

If Discovery, will it be a solid tube, truss or split tube?

Inquiring minds want to know.
