Re: WTB: Celestron Skymaster 15X70

Hi YJ, The skymaster 15x70 can give you views of Saturn, however, I must caution you that it will look the size of a cotton bud head on a good viewing night!

Re: WTB : Budget Telescope

Hi Lim! Welcome! I will definitely have to agree with Chianboon on going to a star party to have a look at the various scopes before you decide on which to get. It is also important to figure out what are the things you want to look at in the night sky. For $100, I may personally recommend a good pa...

Re: Bishan Park sidewalk astronomy- Tonight (10/5/2014)

Hi Dave, When do you intend to organize another sidewalk session? I have a C8 which I am dying to share with the public! Although knowledge wise I still think I have a long way to go, I hope to be able to contribute to astro awareness in SG. Will look forward to joining you guys at Bishan park soon!...

Re: WTS: Three Telescopes for sale / trade

Hi Kimo,

May I enquire on the following:

1) What is the condition of the primary mirror?
2) Can the scope fit a CG-5 dovetail?
3) Are there any other accessories that comes with this deal?
