Since I can't send attached pictures on the list-serve, Patrick has posted the Faulkes Scope picture that Rob took a few nights ago at the following: http://utahastro.info/temp/FAULKESSCOPE.JPG and http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/FAULKESSCOPE.JPG Also, Rob writes: *The Faulkes scope is equipped w/ CCD cams and not an eyepiece like in the photo. This was a CHANCE occurrence and not the norm. It's a big problem for them to do this, everyone has to be out of the dome area for safety and there is no control in the dome to accurately point/correct the aim of the scope. We were there at the right time. The best scopes are at Mauna Kea, Haleakala was Hawaii's 1st observatory site, Gerard Kuiper noticed Mauna Kea above the clouds when he was researching Haleakala and Haleakala was in cloud. either way, THIS state is great and is fun and a joy to be in. There is something for everyone and Maui has the best beaches!!!!!!! Oahu is touristy but FUN, too crowded for me though. - Rob -A
