I am looking to find a 150mm aperature (approximately 6 inches) to do this job, for hopefully under 300$ Possible? Impossible? Anything close?

If its impossible, I can't increase cost, but I am willing to go lower on aperature. Any suggestions?

I just read in the April 7th issue of Science News page 214 that there is evidence of global warming on Mars from 1970's to the year 2,000. I wonder if our global warming is more a solar system phenomna caused by the sun than a global one caused by man

I'm sure scientists have calculated from red shift data approximately where the Big Bang took place. Where are we in relationship tp that? And what is the estimated diameter of the universe?

The Mayan calendar ends then, and as it is very accurate does it mean our world will end?

SINCE SOME GALAXIES ARE MOVING TOWARD US AND OTHERS ARE MOVING AWAY WOULD THIS NOT CONTRADICT ANY EXPLAINATION THAT THE BIG BANG THEORY MIGHT PROVIDE?

I have a tiny starter meade 70mm refractor 3 inch lens.

I have a 9mm, 25mm, and a barlow 2x. Saturn is very tiny in my scope and I highly doubt I can see any further then that. Though I can see the rings it all appears as one piece.

If there is anything I can see using this scope can someone tell me where it is?

Thanks in advance.

Consider, the eclipse is created when the moon passes into the shadow of the Earth. This would indicate that the sun and the moon are on opposite sides of the planet. How early in the afternoon could the eclipse be visible?

According to James Bruce, in "Travels to Discover the Source of the Nile, vol IV," he used his knowledge of an eclipse to escape the wrath of the Sheikh of Beyla. (Beyla being in Republic of Guinea today)

"If the afternoon of that [Friday] shall pass like those of common days, I am a worthless man and an imposter; butif on thatday after four o'clock a sign be seen in the heavens that shall be thought by all of you unusual and extraordinary, then I am an innocent man."

Further, it is claimed that there was indeed a total eclipse visable at ten minutes past four. To me, this seemed unlikely, particularly in such a near equitorial locale.

This pattern seems to be the same in a number of celetial structures - from Saturns rings, to galaxies. I was thinking it was because the all the planets were created by the same event. Comets don't seem to move in the same plane and may not be associated with our system via the same creative event. Any info would be interesting.
