All's not as it appears, this tale has many twists -
but if I wasn't here documenting the story
would that mean that the plot did not exist?

Just checking out the new Tak-130. First image through it. Thirty minutes total exposure.

Image is great

I took the same image one time or another, going to look for it: in the area just to the right of center of the brightest area there is what appears to be a "defect". At least this is what I thought I had in my image until I looked at this one. Looks like a donut... sitting at 3 o'clock.

Wait a second

Three weeks ago, from Astromater in Colorado, I needed more light for camera then the FS-102.
