Messier Marathon 2003

Jennifer and Emily enjoying some hot dogs in Larry Phillip's garage.

Collimation of Michael Holzer's telescope was difficult due to two missing springs.

Not quite right but getting close.  The LaserMax collimator works great and best of all, you don't need to centre dot your primary.

Alden Foraie and Norm Leier were also there for the hazy skies.  Alden sets up his platform for his 10" dobsonian.
