RIP Al Nagler, the man who revolutionized amateur astronomy with his optics at Tele Vue. You will be great missed. Pic from 2025 Northeast Astronomy Forum, where the Astronomy League recognized his contributions to astronomy. #astronomy #NEAF #TeleVue 🔭 ✨

Harper Goff painting (1946) of John Wilkes Booth onstage Ford's Theatre with Joseph B. Stewart rushing to pursue the assassin. My upcoming book on Stewart reveals why he was the "Forrest Gump" of 19th century America.

On this International Moon Day and 56th anniversary of landing, saw Moon occult the Pleiades. Also saw a satellite and airplane pass in front 20 seconds apart! Shout out to Tele Vue 110 degree 4.7 Ethos: full disk at 130x; had to tilt head to get entire view, + textbook airy disks. #astronomy 🔭🌒✨

One of the highlights of last week's Rocky Mountain Star Stare was meeting the founder of Sky View Tents, Joe Bissonnette. These tents are AMAZING! Visual is simply stunning, but transparent enough for even binocular astronomy.
