PastaPosted By Nico Taelman |
Thanks again, Victor, your cat is as close to a twin of pasta as I've seen yet, amazing!
I'm having a hard time coping with the fact I was able to spend money in case he needed surgery but my vet send me home assuring me everything was fine. He died 10 hours later.
As much as I've learned so far that that's life; people die, pets die,...this is so stupid and it didn't have to end this way.
Take care of your pets and if your feeling tells you it's serious ask for a second opinian!

Wow, this image clearly shows the white "pinnacle" of material associated with the globule seen in Hubble images!
Awesome!

Equipment Talk
Rats! Drat! I am a moron!Posted By Nico Taelman |
Sorry to hear that Tom. Glad you told it though. I know of myself I should be more careful with my equipment. Yours is one more unpleasant story to think of when I'm setting up in a hurry or lifting to much equipment at once..
When I was 14 I bought my first real scope, an 8" f4 SN, when I came home with it (it was secondhand) I immediately 'cleaned' the corrector. Only after a while and some reading on telescopes I realized I wiped of the coating and that was the reason for the difference in reflectivity of the corrector lens...Some time later I left my new 6.7 mm UWA on the table while going outdoor. A relative dropped it on the floor and one lens-element had a big chip in it...
2 years ago, ok, I was drunk, I placed my Canon SLR next to my bed while camping, the floor of the tent was wet and so was my camera by the next morning; like having taken a bath....I hope you get over it soon.

Telescope Making
cost effective?Posted By Nico Taelman |
I've bought some mirror blanks in 1998 and I still didn't do anything with it. One day however, when I no longer live in town where the noise would disturb the neighbors, I will try to grind a good mirror. I guess it's only cost effective if you succeed in making a good mirror; if you have the time for it.
Good mirrors cost big $$$.
