Re: Black Friday…
I’ll have to get back to you guys on the model of the Elliptical…I don’t remember it from the top of my head..
So actually I dable a bit in Astronomy and have my own telescope..
But I’ll tell you now..even with a roof deck if the light pollution near your house is high it’s a waste of money. You’re better off with a pair of quality Binoculars. You should be able to see the moon, Venus, mercury, mars, ISS, Jupiter…
I purchased Amazon.com : Orion 09843 SpaceProbe 3 Equatorial Reflector Telescope (Teal) : Reflecting Telescopes : Electronics
This a while back..I saw saturn, jupiter, Mars really well…but like I said..its all about that light pollution. It’ll be good for camping (if and when you guys go)…
This site will help you with light pollutionDarkSiteFinder.com - Light Pollution Map
Stellarium is a good pc app for times and dates and where to look
We’re in a major city so I’m sure we’d rate high in light pollution but most nights when I go up there with my tea I can see lots of stars in the sky so maybe it’s not too bad. We also have one of the best dark parks in the country not far from us: CLICK but I’ll start him off with binoculars! Thanks for the advice!
