    Smile Wouter and Mobile telescope

    Looks like Wouter is famous with the ESA mobile telescope https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...SERVATORY.html :

    Hahaha thanks for posting this Owen. I didn't know that the Daily Mail automagically opens the associated video as well. FYI I had great fun in Wales shooting that video. And PlaneWave telescopes are so incredibly awesome!!!

    Nice rig/telescope/trailer combo, and it was fun to see you in the video Wouter - did you get a chance to observe with the Planewave?

    Unfortunately no chance to observe with it. Some essential parts were missing, i.e. an adapter to mount an eye piece and a filed derotator for imaging. The image on the laptop screen was taken by me from my backyard several weeks ago
