Amateur astronomy is what got me into machining, and I have seen amateurs take pictures that are far better than some of the old glass plate pictures that came off of the 200" Hale telescope.
My dream project is to take this 29.5" f/3.3 mirror I have and turn it into an astrograph. I have big $$ invested in the optics, but little time to move it forward. It was cast from borosilicate by Dream Cellular and the optics were figured by Lockwood Optics.
