My Articles in the Online Magazine "eknova.fi"
There was talk that members could write about their experiences in the club's new online magazine, and I got excited to tell about how I started my hobby. And I continued in the same path, when I borrowed the club's telescope, got enthusiastic about 3D printing focusing masks, took on the challenge of renovating a telescope donated to the club, and so on. Then came the construction of a sky camera and the acquisition of my own telescope, along with the various development projects that went along with them.
In the summer of 2025, I got inspired to go back in time 260 years and was amazed at the high level of astronomy in relation to the technology of that time. Oh yes, that's when the science was based on the work of Isaac Newton and his colleagues.
