Supper huge telescopes have their drawbacks but still it is just so much fun to use one. Our oldest building at the observatory has a Classic Cassegrain scope that is 17in in aperture and has a 6500mm focal length that is f15! It was a cold night and the moon was out so I decided to try some lunar astrophotography through it. It was fun and I learned some things. I will share in the video just what oversampling is. I think this really extreme example illustrates it so anyone can understand.
