Why would you want to go to all that trouble to see a tiny dot on the
sun? There are lots of exciting things to see out there, but why watch a
dot?

Why do you bother to stay alive if nothing is of interest?


You twisted what I said, of course, which is that there are LOTS OF
EXCITING THINGS to see out there now. - Omega Centuri, M-13, the
Sagitarius and Virgo constellations, Andromena, and the Beehive cluster,
to name a few. Look toward Virgo and you can see over six galaxies in
the eyepiece, in one view. All over 30 million light years away.
