I hardly look up now. I used to gaze when the shuttle was flying. I've seen the ISS and Venus is my favorite.

Yes, I got an old one that about 20 years old. It cost me $199.

It has a bargain lensing system, but I never wanted the pro tools.

I really want to invest in a telescope. I live in an area that is far enough from the city that I can see stars most nights if the clouds permit it. I have always looked looking up and just admired the vast space above us. To me, space is heaven and that ever-expanding universe that is all around us is both a mystery and a blessing.

It's like a neverending painting or sculpture. I like your description.

I can't say that I have. I do know that after Thanksgiving, everyone was creating brown dwarfs.

😂
