Question by astrologus491: Remote telescope ideas?
I have a reflecting telescope, an old Meade Electronic eyepiece, a digital video camera, a digital photo camera, and a computer with a video driver (RCA-IN). Is there a way (using the materials above and other accessories) to view what appears in my telescope on the computer screen for less than 0? Do you have any suggestions on what items can achieve this?
