More Information

We had close to a hundred peeps at Paramount Park too, this is the most I personally have seen here. Another 1st was I had around 30 people take pictures of Saturn with their Android phones, and surprisingly some of them came out pretty good. They were so excited about this I just had to let them try even though it kind of held things up for others. I am thinking of bringing another scope next time more suited to eye piece projection. Perhaps an EP with a longer relief than my Ethos EP's have and bracket to rest the Android on? Does anyone have experience with this or ideas?
