Final planning stage, Backyard obs with gear.
Hi Guys
I'm in the final stages of planning my backyards Obs in semi rural Australia (Bortle 3/4). Just making sure I have covered all the basis here. Max budget is 40k. It this moment I can get everything with Australian warranty though local distributors.
Im upgrading from my portable 6" RC to a fixed setup. The reason I'm doing this.
1) I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis at the age of 29.
2) I have benign tumors that could turn cancerous and surgery isn't an option because of the location of them.
3) I would like to do this as it’s something I love doing and want to improve.
Observatory 3m x 3m
* Power
* LAN
* Shed with movable roof
* Pier
* Table
* Computer ( Laptop that I use now for my portable setup)
Telescope gear
* Telescope - GSO 14RC (I have all the tools to collimate it)
* Mount + adapters (JTW OGEM friction drive mount)
* Camera (G4-16000)
* Filters + G4-Filter wheel (Baader LRGB, Ha 3.5nm, OIII 4.5nm, SII 4.5nm)
* Light shroud
* Focuser (Heavy duty from teleskop)
* Auto focuser (Senso Sesto which I already have)
* G4-OAG
* Guide camera (174mm which I already have)
I'll also be using my wide field scope Skywatcher 72ED with my ZWO 1600mm.
Dew heater maybe?
Camera FOV will be 45x45 arc min and 0.65 arc sec/pixel. Skies are between 1" and 2" FWHM
