SLOOH Canary Two DOWN

#1

Post by Ben Cartwright SASS »


The Canary Two scopes, 17" and 85mm, are down for the foreseeable future due to a computer failure!

That really bothers me because that means both ultra wide field scopes, in Chile (90mm Takahashi) and in the Canary Islands (85mm Televue) are both off line and no more wide field imaging can be done. Also the 17" was my favorite scope due to the quality and it wasn't as affected by wind as the 20" is.

The 90mm in Chile has been down for about a year
