Daily Comments Winner

Commenter gblock wins yesterday's contest with his comments on our story about the PSP Homestar program.

The problem is, for beginners, what you're looking for is the Celestron SkyScope. Looks like a camcorder; select the star you're looking for on the side screen, and then look through the eyepiece to find what you're looking for; it'll give you arrows to get you in the right direction. That kind of telescope-and-locator planetarium in a box serves the low end much better than stuff like this... And for everyone else, there's your laptop. Because inevitably, you're going to pick up a telescope, and want to either record what you see through it, or get it to track stuff in the sky. I suppose there's a 'middle range' between them - but I'm unconvinced that this is a good fit. You'd want to be able to find/locate the stuff in the sky you want to be watching, etc., and load in lots of data that probably isn't included in the built in stuff. It won't have, for example, all of the satellite and space junk data - and you'd want that when you're scanning the sky and see something odd.
