15 hours of precision collimating a telescope is so relatable😭😭😭

He noticed a giant fly inside and was disappointed when he found out it was magnified.

There is some software that can help with collimation it's called Metaguide.

The spider found your secondary mirror lacking support and came in to help.

I'd be more worried about the dust particles you left inside from the tissue.

You’re right next time I’ll just grab it with my bare hands and eat it straight!

Beautiful scope you have there! He probably got in through one of the vents.

Wow! How is possible to entry inside the SC the little spider? I can not imagine how are possible, why the instrument are full closed.. Greetings.. Please one question, I see you have one RST mount, but with the C14" what for one RST mount you used? Possible the RST300? But the RST300 are not black, but only the RST135E.. However, if it is the RST135E, isn't it too small to use with a SC C14"? I thinking yes they are too little. Better are the RST300 for the C14". Greetings..

@joeshmoe7899 With the C14" HD, must be used the RST300! The RST135 with counterwait loading maximal 18Kg. Also the C14" HD, are 21Kg. also are not good for the mount! are too much simple to look the ASTRO RAIMBOW Video, the C14" are used only with the RST300

Or should have left it there and claimed to have found spider-like alien life forms.

You should have left it inside, then do an image session, then present to the world the newly discovered Grey Spider Nebula.
