You know what, when i got moon into my FOV, i almost went blind! It's so big and clear!!!!

And me standing in the common area of condo in the middle of the night caught attention of my neighbor and and they too were overwhelmed by the view...

actually, all the excitement aside, think i might need to collimate? right side of the moon isn't as clear as the left......

I wasn't on diagonal when i short this. I was on T adapter...
