M16 the eagle nebula

[moonshinegnomie]

I aquired a new telescope that ive installed at a dark sky location about 3 hours from me (starfront). the scope is hooked up to a small computer so i can operate it over the internet from home

this is 15 hours of data on the eagle nebula. if you look at the center there are what are called teh pillars of creation,the subject of a famous hubble telescope shot.

My husband has a mount (Ioptron?) and a 10 inch. (Ahhhg...not aa reflector or refractor)
He's not home or I'd ask... Anyway.....your shot is wonderful..!!

3. probably a Schmidt-Cassegrain

they are kind of a cross betwen reflector and refractor.
I used to have an 8" sct but it was to heavy to set up and didnt use it much. before i moved to texas i donated to the local high school for science classes to use
