A cooled CCD camera would be great. I'm also curious about spectroscopy but the $$$$$$ are to great. Would like to find a cheap alternative so kids can image the sspectra of stars. I don't know if I'm dreaming about this.

I have a program that uses a telescope to analyse the spectra and a program to make a suitable diffraction grating to put over the front of the telescope.
I think I down loaded the the program from the Meade site some years ago but I think I googled it and found a later version.
I have a little hand held spectroscope used for analysing liquids etc. It is fun to hold it up to a flouro and look at the limited emissions they give off.
