Hi.
Never buy a reflector telescope under 115mm diameter, and in case of refractors
under 70mm, they won't worth anything under this measures, it's the same as
throwing your money.
Some good eyepieces are fundamental too; those chinese telescopes on ebay could
do the job... but just if you
Thanks to everybody for your interest and your kind comments on the photo of the

Carl, the degree of brown vs black in the color of the fusion crust of a freshly
fallen chondrite is a function mainly of the magnetite (FeO·Fe2O3)

Hi, Pete,
All astronomy magazines have regular articles on good telescope purchases for
the whole range of price.
Personally, I don't recall ever seeing one recommended for under ~$200.00.
They will also advise that for a noob, it is best to start with a good pair of
binoculars.
Hallo Martin,
What is even more interesting in the Raphael you posted is the absence of the
Latin inscription on the captioning plaquet. I believe there was one and that,
and this is just an assumption based on the position of the Church vis a vis
things celestial and cosmic in the

Hi Pete. I have devoted a comprehensive list of information on telescopes
with various videos to help those who are confused and uncertain in their
quest to choose a telescope. This can be found on my Website page called the

Hello Listees,
I have a requirement to diplay a Martian meteorite of 2.1 grams. It's an
attractive individual with an oriented black crusted face and a greyish
underbelly. I would like very much to mount this specimen so it is on top of a
lucite pylon, or metal stand. It will be photographed

everything else. Right?

On a limited budget, a small refractor is best for casual planetary
and lunar viewing.
Small reflectors are more suited for viewing deep space objects, such
as galaxies and nebulas.
Avoid reflectors under 100mm in aperture. Their large central
obstruction from the secondary mirror blocks out too
Carl,
You make a very convincing argument against your Norton County Aubrite being
from Mercury. Especially when you do consider it's very low Iron content and
it's white color.
I have seen many Aubrites and I do not ever recall seeing one with zero
observable iron.
But, What do you think
