Curt, I was riding through the rural Ark. countryside with my uncle and 3 cousins on vacation when they landed on the moon. I was ready to not go on the trip unless I was assured we would be somewhere where I could watch it on TV. smile

I wonder how long it will take for them to deteriorate into dust? :S

Porter garden telescope reborn--pricey?

Posted By Darian Rachal

Doug, I wonder if maybe they meant $5,900.00. $59,000.00 just doesn't make any sense to me. :S

Wes, Plato is one of my favorite craters to observe, so I know how difficult it is to see the details your photo is showing. From my experience, steadily seeing the double crater is an accomplishment.

Autumn in Utah

Posted By Darian Rachal

I'll be in Cedar City in SW Utah for about a week, next week. Anybody familiar with the Hwy 12 Scenic route? Hope to see the N. Rim of the Grand Canyon. I've only seen the S. Rim view. A friend whose never seen the Canyon is coming w/me. I'm looking forward to her reaction. 8O
