Default Comet Holmes 1

Curious - What is a "Bynostar 130-900 Newton" ?

Crazy Ed


It's a Newtonian telescope (the one with the mirror in it). Has a diameter
of 130 mm (5.12 inch) and a focal length of 900 mm (35.43 inch). Conditions
that night were not really good, so photo is not that clear. But even though
it's a "cheap" telescope, I can make great shot's with it, see
http://astro.3dart4u.com/albums/user..._1023_full.jpg. It's a
high res shoot of the moon, mosaic made out of 40 seperate images.
