Bunbury observatory

Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

Bunbury observatory

Post by Jeremy »

Hello Singastro,

Glad to see a good level of activity on Singastro. Good luck with the Singastro Festival 2004 - shame I'll miss it!

A few people lately have asked to see a photo of my observatory here in England. I don't have a web site up and running yet, so I have taken the liberty of posting a picture here. The dome is made of fibreglass and is green. The colour is supposed to help it blend in with the environment (instructions from my wife), but to be honest a 7 foot dome doen't really blend in with anything, whatever the colour!

Through the slit you can see the Tak FS102 on the GPD.

Go well!
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy

What is that giant green mushroom sticking out in your yard?

Nice gears inside the lovely dome. Now you can have adequate protection during the winters. Have you given it a name?
