Perhaps an opportunity to try some large aperture imaging, Mike ?

The focusser and focus position doesn't look ideal for hanging a big rig off though . Looks like some monster focusser you'd buy 30 years ago that looked appropriate for a large scope but sits the focal plane way off the side of the tube . But maybe its a lot beefier in the flesh .

Milroy observatory ( 1 meter pictured ) has its grand opening during the Coonabarabran Starfest . It would be interesting to see what kind of prime focus capability it has and what kind of group hire rate and bunkhouse tariff .
