Who tf has a 6,000$ rooftop telescope
Then you see people who make personal observatories in their backyard which I can only assume would contain an equally expensive telescope. To get the good pictures you need a pretty good camera that can do long exposures over multiple nights to combine to make a single picture with better clarity. Ah a person can dream, till then my cheap dobsonian works well enough and I'll enjoy their pictures.
Do you have some pictures?
No, I don't save pictures usually, I just enjoy them when others show off their work.

Sweet! Now do some earth-size exoplanets and primordial black holes!
I love the Capibaras Howling at the Moon nebula so much
