This is the place for Astronomy Photos submitted by our local members. The scope's used to take them are very sophisticated pieces of equipment. The telescopes are of different designs, a Mirrored Telescope (Reflector) or a Telescope with Clear Glass in the front (Refractor). The telescopes are attached to a very accurate Mounts, compensating for the earths rotation.
