Cement pads are provided and have eletric services on cement piers for accessories such as dew heaters or stationary power supplies for scopes with clock drives or GoTo type mounts.
Green is my favorite color and I try to surround myself with it...Oddly, I have always thought Venus looked green to me. I used to live in Alaska and green was definitely the most commom color of the aurora; however, I must admit I most enjoyed the reds purples and blues :).
do you know of anyone near Bryan, Ohio that would be willing to come to my house and show me how to set up my Telescope my Son gave me for Christmas? I am truly sincere in my request and would be so very grateful for any help that could be given. Thank You
What model telescope is it?
In the 1950's most of the school rooms were painted greens, supposedly to help the children learn and keep them focused and calm. Look at the difference between the kids then and now. Maybe they had something.
