Weird Trend ..

Call it fate or whatever but just noticed a weird trend in my Astro-progress.

When I built the 10" Dob it got named SKeletope due to it's skeletal minimalist appearance.
I bought a SKywatcher EQ6 Pro recently to advance my astrophotography aspirations.
The EQ6 needs a more permanent location to be useful and I have this large concrete slab which will soon be the home to my Roll Away ' Observatory' which I named SKySlab.
All this without any conscious thought about the trend but a bit SKary ...

I'll have to figure out a few more names for stuff as I go.

Weird ...

( I'll post pics and do a progress report on the SkySlab project under the observatory forum when I get really started but it's a cheap mini ob idea that should let me get more use out of my astro-investment )

Its well known that the human brain is pre-disposed to finding patterns in things. Pattern recognition if you will. It can throw up false positives however. Yours seems to be skewed toward finding SK. You're skrewed tbh!
