the elusive seeing bypasses everyone higher that 43 degrees again!

[Robert_T]

Not too shabby Asi, looks pretty sharp, just a little seeing affected. Since the cloud's moved in seeing is no longer a problem for me

[Lester]

Good to see you are still trying.

Nice effort.

[asimov (John)]

I now have plenty of time to try harder Lester. Just lost my job 20 mins ago. All over red rover.

[davidpretorius]

wot????

that really sux!

not enough work?? starting to get tight down here in the tassie economy, a few engineering shops shutting for good.

[Lester]

Thats awful news Asi.

Perhaps I could get you to design me a new observatory! One that turns a bit easier. Will talk to you first though.

[asimov (John)]

Yes Dave, "put off due to lack of work" is the official reason. A bit upsetting I must admit. Not easy to find work around here. Took me 7 mths to find this one!

[asimov (John)]

No worries Lester.

yup 100 messier objects located in 100 seconds.

supercooled magnets on the base of the observatory so it sits on air, 10g's pulled in acceleration of the turning observatory, crash helmet (kevlar) area due to rapidly spinning telescopes.......................

It could be a whole new breed of telescope housing that this planet hasn't seen before.

Don't want it to spin too fast, my tummy doesn't like that.
