Telescope Making the 16" Newtonian
Basically, i see in this scope great potential. with the proper equipment, like a good German equatorial mount, and goto mechanism, a good CCD camera attached, i think we will be able to do more than mere amateur astronomy with it. we should be able to split Sirius with it at high power, and also go to depths we have never been to as far as deep space observing and photography is concerned.
Lets see, and hope for the best....
