See, that's what scares me. He said once he attached a camera to a telescope... that's where I'm headed.

Great article, and the Q&A was interesting. The whole time, James Taylor's "Up on a roof" was meandering thru my head. Thanks for sharing!

My brother built one on a platform that he could put in his pickup truck and take to places with low light pollution.

Very nice, I had while surfing the astro forums of a person who couldn't build local due to light conditions. He obtained a piece of property a good ways from him and built a remote observertory unique and he could stay warm while onsite of was cooler..
