Telescope views of Saturn the Sun and Moon Terrace BC
Uploaded by: redshift40
Video Description:
Some photos and video I have taken from by back yard in Terrace BC. All photos and video are hand held, unguided shots through a custom made 12.5" Newt/Dob telescope.(the mirror is from www.galaxyoptics.com)
Close-ups were taken through a 5mm Pentax SMC XW-5 eyepiece. The camera doesn't do justice to what you see live at the eyepiece, but I hope you still like the view...

I used a 5mm Pentax SMC XW eyepiece and a Canon A-70 camera. The mirror is a f4.8 - 60" focal length.
I get this scope up to 610x one or two nights a year. Seeing has been horrible the past 6 months here.
So there is a way from earth to see the other half of the moon???
I enjoyed the UFO video you posted and commented on it, how I got caught up in alot of the UFO vids on here. And after using a simple camcorder, I had and zoomed in on the brightest object I found in the sky, and what I saw was what 75% of the UFO vid's look like.
So what do you think about that guy Leonard Walson's shots of the moon and other objects??
LW photos are a hoax.
In many ads Ive been reading it mentions something about seeing nebulas and galaxies, how accurate is that???
For that last 9 years I have been searching all over the country for any shop that sells telescopes. No luck, as yet. So far the only 'telescope' I have been able to find is a spy-glass made to look as if it is antique. LOL. I was so desperate finally i made one myself using a PVC tube and a mirror and instructions from the web.
You can do the math from there.
