40 years almost to the day necessity demanded that I sold my 4 inch Unitron refractor. After a golden decade which included the manned moon landing, perhaps the greatest adventure mankind had ever embarked on, I hung up my eyepieces.
My interests in astronomy and space science in general never waned, but apart from several pairs of binoculars of questionable quality and performance I have lived 40 years without a "scope."
But my friends the drought is over.
Before me stands a 115 diameter objective apochromatic mounted on an HEQ5. So, the adventure begins again! All I need now are clear skies and great seeing...My my some things don't change!
