The camera and scope work well together. Maybe you can now re-name "Blue Knob, PA" to "Bluish-green Nebula, PA"!! It would fit in with my favorite Pennsylvania town: "Starlight, PA". George N |

George N Up here we have some astronomical rural roads but I'm not lucky enough to live on one. My area is all named for flora and fauna Whoever named them has a sense of humor. Two side by side streets are Humble drive and Humvee drive. A Mexican restaurant is on Fajita Dr. A church on Faith Lane. The streets were named only a couple years ago after a century of not having any official names. So the names were picked intentionally. Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

There's no sense in getting too serious about place names! LOL!!!!! BTW, "Starlight, PA" is appropriately named: It's a tiny town in the "northeast kingdom" area of Pennsylvania and is very dark. I don't think they have a grocery store in the county, but it would probably make a great address to sell astronomy stuff from! One of my other favorite astro-names is Hamilton College's "Foggybottom Observatory". Half Moon?? I was born about a half mile from Half Moon Point on the north side of the Mohawk where it enters the Hudson. It's in the Town of Half Moon. The point was named by Henry Hudson in 1609 for his ship the 'Half Moon' even though he couldn't get the ship that far up the river. George N |
