  1. I got my scope from Orion Telescopes. They seem to have a very good reputation and I'm extremely happy with the scope I got.

    Mine is an 8" Dobsonian reflector. It's fairly powerful for a starter scope. I wanted something I could use for a long time. Do you want something basic that's not too expensive or something a little more powerful?

    I'll try and get my camera attachments set up so I can take some pictures. It's hard to remember and explain exactly how things look. I was pretty blow away by that nebula though.

    Thanks that helped I might go more with a computerized one so I can sound smart and start knowing in advance what I am seeing. Maybe something like this http://www.telescope.com/Telescopes/GoTo-Computerized-Telescopes/Orion-StarBlast-6i-IntelliScope-Reflector-Telescope/pc/-1/c/1/sc/15/p/102026.uts

  2. My daughter just turned three and she loves everything space. I took her to the space museum and science museum and she loves it. I was looking at getting a nice telescope and maybe learning about it myself. Any good recommendations for telescopes and where? I got here a lady bug that has all the constellations on it and it lights up to the ceiling but maybe a good website or two so I can study up :) Thanks in advance.

  3. Baseball cards what a shame the market got so dried up. I have about 4 chests at the old mans house that I try to tell him are worthless now. I do have some cool memorabilia, my dad use to work for the sun he has baseballs signed by the 67 68 69 and 70 team of O's and a Brooks signed Glove. He has a bunch of other cool things that I don;t think are worth much but good pieces of history to just have like JFK stamp presses that have all the JFK scenes on those plates I bet we could put them in something really cool.
