Description

This is what happened when I forgot the cables for the guiding camera and couldn't use the Orion 8" Newtonian Astrograph, but thankfully I was carrying my small but trusty 70mm APO Refractor, you know just in case. And it saved the day (I mean night), since with its shorter FL and significantly lower weight I was able to get meaningful exposure times on my AVX mount.
