One has to wonder why the hundreds of pounds of actual moon brought back can't give us the compositional information that the spectrum of a dust cloud supposedly will. Is all this for the signature of a few molecules of water vapor? Erik, I promise you that the Grim has enough focus to accommodate my little camera. If it can focus with that 55mm eyepiece, it can focus with anything. Ideally I need to machine a thread-on adapter first. I would project it onto my 7" portable flatscreen in real-time. You could view it on a computer after I download and convert the files.
