Я кажется влюбился в неё 🥰🥰. Вот это женщина👍👍👍. Вот такой мне не хватает, когда я выезжаю на наблюдения ночного неба

Ok now who will be the first to invent a decent c14 lifter on wheels to secure the handling to the mount without destroying astronomers back

I have a video on this very topic where I explain how I do it :)

That moment you realise you're the autochtone living in this primary tripod forrest😂

Much respect. My C8 feels like a handful. You bossed those OTA’s!

One day I wish to get those many scopes and such clear location.

You forgot to add those dead lifts :)

Goodness gracious and here I am thinking wow if I buy a Meade 10 inch with 65lbs weight limit… it’s so heavy… now I’ll never complain and just go ahead and buy it cause if u can do it I can too! No more excuses! Awesome collection of telescopes!! Is that a C14!??? I wannna see those planetary images from it :) it’s so nice to see women astronomers too, since we don’t often see women into the hobby! But a woman that has SEVERAL amazing telescopes!? I think you had those goals in mind and achieved them!

thank you for your very kind comment :) yesss that is a C14... I don't have many (good) planet photos, I use the C14 mainly for deep sky too! I do only set it up though when I have multiple nights in a row because it's quite the exercise when I'm alone :D And yess you should go for it! Big scopes are the best - a few minutes of workout in exchange for awesome views, it's worth it

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@the_space_koalaawe no problem 😊and wooow that’s my dream scope! I did own several larger scopes like a C9.25, a C11 and a Meade 12 inch light bridge and I agree the more aperture, the more wow 😮 there is! I saw Jupiter in the C9.25 so sharp it got me so excited cause Jupiter was about the size of a coin 🪙 in the eyepiece, and I could see amazing detail. But ohhh u should totally take videos and pictures through that C14 of the planets and even moon!!! It would be awesome! And you got the best version of it too! The HD 😊😊😊 let me borrow it!!!! Heheh I’m jkjkjk I wouldn’t even have a proper mount for it 😂. But so awesome!! I bet deep sky objects and just overall everything in it must look incredible. Now that you put it that way you’re right! A workout while setting up telescopes! Sounds great 😊

the C14 was also my dream scope and I didn't think I would have it for a few more years at least, but I got it used on an auction for a little under 1/2 price and so it was now-or-never :D

⁠@the_space_koalaohh nice!!! I’m glad you were able to get your dream scope though, it’s so awesome to be able to get things that we only dreamed of having. I remember when I was getting my first telescope I saw this CPC11 inch and I’m like someday I’m gonna get one! And years later and after savings I was able to get one also half off! It was worth it and I felt I achieved something 😊. Anything is possible if we set our minds to it. Someday I’ll aquire a C14 too :))) but seeing it from your videos and how massive the beast is, I think ima wait till I buy a house so I could have it permanently housed in an observatory for sure. But awesome collection of telescopes you have! And I love to watch your videos 😊

It would have been better to plan it out beforehand instead of moving them all 5 different times 😆

I had a plan but it all fell through when my longest power extension cord was not entering the socket of the house 😂
