Thanks for sharing those, Shane. An incredible variety of scopes.

The

A small, portable observatory.

Was it really? It looks so small. If so, who makes it or was it user
made? I've been thinking that a tent-like structure might be a good way
to go but I've not seen one before.

Yeah .. I found it, too. Intriguing. But is it the thing I most want
to spend $500 in astronomy right now? My list includes:

o Celestron Heavy Duty Wedge (for my absent Nexstar 8 GPS)
o SAC 7B Cooled CCD camera

And that likely gets me to $750 without the Wedge upgrade kit (and I
don't know if I need that.

Fine pictures of Stellafane 2003 and an interesting website. I have
bookmarked it and will return in the next couple of days to check out the
other Stellafane's you have listed plus the CCD imaging.

Thanks,


Martin
