Hi Folks;

Just in case any of you have $32,500 USD burning a hole in your pocket

and have a mount caqable of handling a 140 lb 20" aperture scope,

check out:

It's an interesting design.

Imagine what sort of imaging one could do of Saturn and the Moon at

3450 mm prime focus lenghts and a 508 mm mirror. With a light bucket

that big, you could shoot Saturn at probably 10 ms exposures and 60

frames per second.

TTYL..
