My sister lives in Greenwich, London and you can see the shape of Orion from there.I think that the most serious source of light pollution there comes from Canary Wharf on the north side of the Thames and it's pretty brutal.

@@twm1452 My club The Astronomical Society of Las Cruces founded in the early 1950s, Clyde Tombaugh was a founding member. Anyway we have two club observatories one with a 14" Meade SCT and the other with a 16" Meade in roll-off observatories in two state parks. One is just out of town in Bortle 4 to 3 and the other is in City of Rocks State Park and Bortle two. Largest scope in the club is owned by a couple with a CDK 700 Plane Wave for NEO searching. The two Meades were gifts from NMSU Go Aggies, to the Club. Problem with the Yapp scope is moving it. Would need a grant with significant amounts of money to move it to better seeing conditions and build a dome for it.

Merry Christmas to you all... I used to stay with Dylis & Richard Bingham....( Playsters Farm) Trugg Baskets ...Marino sheep... And I loved Dylis so much . Of course she used to work/assist at The Observatories, To be honest I have no idea exactly when or the year .... I just think very highly of both Dylis & Richard.... I stayed with them in 2006. However, I am living in Cheshirer now ( Joddrell Bank lol ) I love The arcutecture of the science centre in Herstmonceux. Next time I am down that way I will have to nip and say hello,,,, If anyone of the team sees any of the Bingham family... Just say. "Collette & Jessica " big Love xxxxxxx

Mostly reflectors of such aperture are seen. Saying "a 20" refractor" would make people think you're stupid. That is a very impressive telescope. Does a refractor like that have advantages over a reflector?

Ohhh an awesome refractor. I would really like to try that one, I bet it is better than the 24 inch at the Lowell observatory. At 2:03 you say you can take picture of the same part of the sky "say 6 months apart". Will it not be daylight in one of the pictures unless the stars are circumpolars.

Hi Ortondal, The photographs wouldn be taken at different times of the day. For example we would photograph one star a star in March a couple of hours after sunset when it is visible above the western horizon after the setting sun. In September we can photograph the same star a couple of hours before sunrise when it is visible above the eastern horizon before the rising sun. It would be a problem if we tried to photograph the stars when then are in opposition or conjunction with the sun but we pick times of the year when they are at 90° to the sun.
