What did the night side of the moon say to the day side? "I'll be black" badum tish.

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Hahaha! I'm so using that!

Is there an attachment that could couple the camera to the telescope?

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

There are. You can find such attatchments on the Orion website, maybe ebay. I would only reccomend them if you have a tracking system on your telescope. Time elapsed shots will require you to follow the sky. If you want to simply take quick snapshots you can just hold the camera to the eyepiece.

I like how you said "the Terminator." Very dramatic!

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

If I'm in the mood I'll do the Arnold accent. : )

Great video, I've always wanted to take photos of the moon at night but you need a good camera to even consider attempting it

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Well I am glad it turned your crank Quark. : )

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Oh, how I have failed at this manuever.
