Two days ago I stopped at a moving sale. The guy is losing his house. Anyway he had a Nexstar 102 GT Telescope he wanted 200 bucks for. I took a photo of it.
Your post reminded me so I just looked it up and they sell for $400 and he was asking 200.
I bet I could get it for 100. Other wise no deal LOL

He finally finished the set up last night. Now we just need some better weather and clear skies! I'm super excited!

Nice. That should be really fun. I know it's computerized and will find constellation for you but is there away to take photos?

We took photos with our little old telescope just by putting our cellphone up to the telescope lense... and I was impressed with how they turned out. I don't know much of anything with the new telescope yet though.

I did that too. It was hard to line up but it actually worked pretty well. I just thought a camera might be included in the thing.

From this evening. Hazy. These were taken with my cellphone camera. But you can see the craters fairly well. Much better with your eye, of course.

India, just announced they are going to attempted a 2nd moon landing.
Trump ask NASA, if the US could land on the 2nd moon before them.

Didn't Trump just say at some rally how proud he was that they were building The Wall across Colorado?
