Evertime i look through mine at venus i keep seeing the secondary mirror

Hmm, I don't recall that happening the last time I looked at Venus. Though, our scopes are probably different. When is the last time you collimated it?

I wondered if there would be someone in the comments to correct me, thank you! I knew I was off, but I did not know just how off I was.

@ in college, we had an annual bocce (“Botch-e” - Italian lawn bowling) tournament sponsored by the campus radio station on Guglielmo Marconi’s birthday. So I had to learn to say it right. Plus all my grandparents were born in Italy :-)

That's pretty cool, and definitely explains why you know how to pronounce it!

Worth sending solar sail probes to. Probably a chain. I thought Zuckerberg was funding such a program? Even if there's no life it's the first star mankind will travel to...... eventually.

I do think that this star system would be an excellent goal for potential solar sail tech, once we actually get it figured out. Even with potential communications taking 4ish years to go back and forth it would be feasible to follow within a humans lifespan. While I am not sure about Zuckerberg I do know that NASA is working on them.

What is wild is that even if we could develop space vehicles that could travel at 10% of light speed it would still take 43 years to get there. It would take even longer if the space vehicle was required to stop there. Proximal Centauri’s planets are probably atmospherically dead. The solar flaring of Proxima Centauri stripped away their atmosphere eons ago. If Poxima’s planets are dead it would be a waste of time to spend the time, money, and effort to visit the system.

Yep, in terms of the travel that is correct! As for the planets orbiting Proxima from what I learned researching this video I agree. Even if an atmosphere could or did form the stars flares have either stripped it away entirely or are preventing it from ever become substantial.

Are you referencing the font I used for the thumbnail? Because if so, you are correct!
