Trackball Telescope
Date:   Wed, July 5, 2006
This is another one of those "I don't usually post an article that I found on another links site, but this one is too good to pass up.." type deals. Many thanks to Digg for the link.

This website by Eugene Oregon Science Fiction writer and amateur astronomer Jerry Oltion (Someone who I would be very surprised if Jim Craig didn't know...), details a devilishly clever telescope mount. I won't give anything away, you better just go look at it yourself.


Jim: I don't know him well (although I owe him a copy of a poem written by a mutual friend who passed away) but, yes, I do know Jerry. I wish I'd known he was an ATM back when I still lived in the area.

Incidentally, he's a really nice guy and a really good writer!
