Oh, nice!

I am in a perfect rural spot for that. Maybe some day...

You could see the US flag waving on the moon with that thing! Just cool.

Colonialist...

Nice model of a Galleon in that case, above the Enterprise. But walking in socks on hardwood floors can get tricky, especially with pets...
As for the telescope, I have plans for one in the future... Is this one computerized?

@Frank S. yer a genius...I looked at that pic and only saw a British power strip plugged into itself......

Colonialist...

Imagine what I could do with the Enterprise!

Re-populate the Universe

Kirk tried and failed... @Topkick is only enlisted, and not nearly as cool as James Tiberius Kirk.

Sorry to hear the loss Red Flag, Its definitely 1000x nicer than my spotter telescope. I can't see Saturn clearly with mine; envious to say the least.

How the Greeks, Romans, etc. could make out the planets from the stars is beyond me.

He shall soon be known as Topkirk, however.

Are British power strips...different to American ones?

That is some amazing scope. We have a $150 kiddie version collecting dust somewhere.

I would invest in cool stuff like this but I need a tractor with an air conditioned cab (which has me buying lottery tickets)... and more guns.

That will be it's home. The room is 100% glass covered and panels in the roof will open to give a glare-free look into the heavens above. I think my SIL has a plan to capture the "Enterprise" in a photo sometime down the road. I'm anxious to see how he plans to pull this off.

I'm toying with ideas along similar lines but on a smaller scale. I like the idea of stargazing as a sort of social activity (really between my wife and I), although I'd never dream of leaving this rock. There continues to be more and more things to see and observe up there.

120v vs 220v, yes they are a lot different

I meant the concept but now I've been accidentally educated and I'm not sure how that makes me feel.
