Re: [ATM] Extended Object Brightness

I used 100 ones stacked in the same orientation. I've burned a hole all the
way through a 100 of George Washington's eyeballs and set fire to my house.
I'm now homeless and forced to live in my OTA (and any money I have left has
burn marks all over it)..... all because someone brought this up.

OK, point the telescope at the sun, put a hundred-dollar bill behind the
eyepiece, and observe.  Is that what you want to have happen to your
eyeball?



******************

Not having a hundred handy I folded two fifty dollar bills together and I
must say I think that it worked as well as if I used a hundred. When I can
find a hundred I will make a comparison and post the results.
