RASC Hamilton telescope camera at observatory?

[Andrew Bienhaus]

Always possible…

You guys presented to mostly admin folks at the groups, so there is a delay as word travels… but I will keep spreading it.

Hi Andy, your comments have not fallen on deaf ears. I will discuss it at  our board meeting next month. I am a bit sad that we only had a few leaders sign up for our program. Is it possible for you to light a fire with a few of your piers.

	Hey guys,

	Newbie here, on behalf of 1st Binbrook Scout Group. (a new member) ;-)

	 

	Our experience at the Conservation area, was a great one, and we look forward to a visit to the observatory.

	 

	But, one thing is evident, and that is that trying to get 30 kids past one eyepiece, is problematic. ;-)

	 

	I know there are cameras you can mount to eyepieces, and we do have an older data projector as well as monitors out the wazoo.

	But what sort of expense and options are we talking about, to mount a digital feed onto the telescope?

	 

	and, is this something the club has ever considered raising funds to purchase for installation there?

	 

	thanks!

	Andy
