Building an Observatory Part 9

[@febsat]

Really taking shape now. Nice to see the inspector showing up to give some tips @ 15:36 🙂

Thank you! Yes, that is my mother visiting :)

Nice job, getting near the end now, looks good! Clear skies!

[@frosthastrophotography]

Thank you! Yes, soon finished with the exterior, but then some work left with the interior, electrics and electronics not to forget the automation and programming :D

[@SimonsAstro]

@@frosthastrophotography Yes, I’ve got all that to come😀!

The observatory is coming along nicely. Great content!

[@frosthastrophotography]

Thank you very much!

Hi Martin,
Yep, moving right along and looking good. I noticed that your tree branches and trunk were finally picked up or hauled away. Also, did I notice on the gold color house across the street having solar panels on the roof? I have 5kW of solar panels. Thanks for the wish for clear skies, but I just bought a new planetary camera and doomed the SE US with 7 nights of clouds and rain.

[@frosthastrophotography]

Yeah, finally got those out of the way. No, must be something else, no close neightbour with solar panels. I'm thinking about it though.

I wished I lived in a place where I could feel comfortable enough to build my observatory in my front yard. As it is, I'm stuck in my backyard with obstructed views to the east and south.

[@frosthastrophotography]

I wish that for everyone! I hope you can image anyway.

@@frosthastrophotography I do try to get any target I can in the north. :)

[@frosthastrophotography]

@@feraxks I used to image in the backyard, and also only targets due north, some west and east, but that southern sky is the one we want :D

[@feraxks]

@@frosthastrophotography About that southern sky, too true!
