This is amazing, but seem so intimidating lol. I've spent a good couple of years on a cheap telescope, just messing around getting to know how to use it but never really stuck at it for too long. I've ended up just reading up space stuff instead of exercising astronomy. What'd be best to revive something like this?

More importantly, what are your lowest-barrier recommendations to get started? I think this will be an interesting project (maybe the participation / interest volume isn't enough at the moment). But a good time to plan and test out posts that could work with the community. It'll take time, but man, that was an interesting read.

(i'll try to have another read at this again in the morning!)
