Interesting comment from Damien's website:

"The primary telescopes employed today for high resolution imaging are a hand picked Celestron C14 Schimdt Cassegrain....."

Looks awesome.. I'm sure celestron would give them full run of the factory to hand-pick the ones that give the best artifical-star tests.

It's great marketing for celestron, to have the world's best planetary imagers using their gear.

Dave already has one Jupiter image up..
