Backyard Voyager
The goal is to provide information to people new to the hobby, or for those who are contemplating an equipment purchase but are confused by the flood of online ads and marketing hype. We hope to bring astronomical expectations back down to earth, so to speak.We try to steer people toward realistic expectations. The Eyepiece Views page is a good example of this. On this page are several images, created in Adobe Photoshop, that try to duplicate what you might see at the eyepiece of a telescope of moderate aperture.
