The newest addition to the observatory arrived on October 7, 2008. That would be the 12.5" Optical Guidance Systems Ritchey-Chrétien research grade telescope. Those familiar with my earlier imaging will recall that for a number of years I used their 10" Ritchey-Chrétien research grade telescope and was always highly pleased with its performance so you can only imagine my pleasure using this highly crafted instrument. I look forward to many more years of exploring our universe with this telescope. The thumbnails below are linked to larger pictures I have posted of the telescope as it exists now. Simply click on them for the larger versions.
