X-Message-Number: 20299 From: Date: Sun, 13 Oct 2002 10:29:48 EDT Subject: One small step... --part1_16a.157793d1.2adadd5c_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Recall my project about looking at star ocultations with a set of movable telescopes? This would be the first level to get an intensity interferometer, the device working as a testbed of a phonon intensity interferometer, one of the first brain reader. Beyond telescopes for data gathering, there must be some observing instruments if some people must be recruited for that project. Large binos are best than small telescopes for that, so I have bought a 100 mm binocular, unfortunately, there is a weight problem to handle them. So I have built an all metal rigid mount. This is more stable than any camera tripod and don't tumble down as many marketed bino mounts. It is too an exercise in making a small mount before making larger ones for observing telescopes. Y.
