Newtonian reflecting telescope

The author's telescope. A 300 mm computer controlled Newtonian reflector made by Orion Optics. This was used with an MX 716 Starlight express CCD camera. It was housed on a permanent site in a shed. The shed was mounted on rails so that it can be run off leaving the telescope ready for observation.
