Re: [Frameworks] telescope

[Gene Youngblood]

I guess we’re both confused. This diary is about George’s visit to Vallee’s 
observatory in Mendocino in 1993. I would guess the telescope cost around 
$100,000, but that’s what I want to confirm. I realize it’s a long shot, but 
you never know who’s out there on Frameworks. I’ll send a still frame to anyone 
who knows telescopes well enough to identify a make and model, or at least a 
general class, of such instruments. Or who can recommend an amateur astronomers 
website, although Vallee is no amateur.

Francisco,
I’m not sure I understand your question. If you’re watching it on You Tube, 
your question is answered.

[Frameworks] telescope

[Gene Youngblood]

For my project on George Kuchar’s video diaries, I need someone who can 
identify Jacques Vallee's telescope shown in the 1993 diary “Tower of the 
Astro-Cyclops.” Vallee is uncooperative. So can anyone point me to an amateur 
astronomer’s club, or to an individual or university department that might be 
able to help? Any UFO buffs who might have an article or book with this 
information?  Many thanks.
