RE: Astronomical Imaging – Basics – 6
Wow thats so cool. Your tempting me to buy a whole bunch of expensive stuff . Its amazing what is available to the average person now for what is next to nothing compared to what this would have cost to get an image like this 50 years ago.
Thank you, and yeh its amazing how far we've come in 50 years. I was trying to dig up a photo that was taken from McDonald Observatory in the late 1960's that was mean't to be one of the best images at the time, and it could be easily reproduced today with an 8" telescope.
