Astronomy

I'm Bob. I'm an Amateur Astronomer. I have a Celestron 14" SCT and a Televue NP127is with a Mountain MI-250 Go-To mount. I use a Starlight Express SXV-H9C CCD camera from Adirondack Video Astronomy, and a HyperStar (on the 14") from STARIZONA.

There is far too much light pollution where I live, so I always have to transport it to a dark site. I made a wagon to carry the 14", and use carry on luggage to transport the mount. Maps, books, Heat tapes, Wiring harness, and red flash lights are in the outside pockets of the two suit cases.
I'm an active member of the Central Pennsylvania Observers Astronomy Club in State College, PA.
