To modify an adage from a well known movie....you are going to need a bigger scope.

A seller on Astromart is selling a 4" Zeiss Giant 100mm (80 degree FOV) eyepiece. This thing is huge.

Cripes! You would need to buy another counterweight as well as a 4 inch focusser.:eyepop:

You'd probably need to get your eyes surgically shifted further apart by about 50 mm to bino-view with these suckers! :eyepop:

Haha this is hilarious! Maybe it's made for some sort of intergalactic creature?

Regardless, he'd find a way...

Well they say the eyepiece is half the telescope! A case where the eyepiece may be larger than the objective lol.
