The last few weeks I’ve been pondering about getting another scope with more focal length but in the end I’ve decided to stick with my 5 inch newt for now. I do plan to perform some upgrades, so I’m looking for a better focuser and I might even replace the full metal tube with some carbon material.

This should be an interesting project, let’s hope I don’t break the scope in the process.

In the meantime, the SQA55 did some work on the Orion Nebula. This has been an amazing purchase and now it will get some well deserved rest.
