    Very cool video, I picked up a star analyzer diffraction grating a few months ago myself. Its such a neat little thing!

    Fascinating.

    Managed to build my own star analyzer with a clear 1.25" filter cell and one of the lil rainbow symphony diffraction gratings! Hoping to point it at Vega to try it out, but it works on terrestrial light sources

    I did try with the student's diffraction grating that you showed in the beginning with by 127 mm refractor and ASI 294MC pro colour camera on Sirius and did get a spectrum in RSpec. Still a lot of refining to be done.

    Started looking into this a couple of months ago, had no idea you could do this being into amatuer astro imaging. Definitely want to try it out this year.

    This is really awesome stuff, I’m an amateur astronomer from Mahikeng, South Africa

    Thanks. Great content and I've learned a lot from you being a fellow SCT owner. I have recently gone down the eq mount path but kinda regret it to be honest. The "fast" astro capability of alt az is very underrated. Followers of the mainstream aren't always leaders. 👌🏼

    GREAT video, Kyle. I wish the videos I posted about RSpec got as many views!

    This is awesome! I'm in DFW too and just starting my journey. I'm loving your videos and explanations. Do you just do all of these things in the metroplex or do you drive a bit to get darker skies? I can't wait for your next video!
    Oh...and do you scuba dive too?! Same here! Do you ever go to Scuba Ranch in Terrell?

      Thank you thank you!
      I do all of the non-deep sky stuff from within the metroplex yes. Normally just this tiny park a few minutes from my apt.
      And yeah! I'm pretty green though. Only ~15 dives in. I got my open water cert at scuba ranch, but haven't been back since. May go back for dry suit training tho.

    Now let me introduce you to your next obsession: Sol'Ex and Star'Ex.

      had a look at it, would never recommend just a ND filter at the front of a scope...doesn't do anything for IR...a ERF is mandatory. Also, be very cautious with using oil filled element refractors - heat build up and cool down will fuck the scope.

    Hi, is it worth the SA200 Instead of the SA100? Or not?

      ​@@kylemccaslin if it's worth anything, from a viewers standpoint I love it when something is explained/thought processes. Kind of like nilered
