					<description><![CDATA[I have had an Orion XT8 SkyQuest 8&#8243; Dob for a few years now and it has held up well. This telescope has offered up a nice view of a lot of objects but for some reason I have never written about it. Let&#8217;s change that. Here is a short Orion Skyquest XT8 review. I bought this telescope several years ago and paid less than the Orion Skyquest XT8 price on Amazon, but like most things, prices have gone up a little and they have changed the scope a little. My old Orion XT8 came with a couple of eyepieces and… <a class="continue-reading-link" href="https://allans-stuff.com/2018/06/16/orion-xt8-review/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Most people interested in astronomy know the name Messier because they use the Messier Catalog for both visual astronomy and astrophotography. Charles Messier, the name behind the catalog, is not always so well known. I thought I would take this opportunity to introduce Charles Messier to you. Charles Messier was born in Brandonviller France on the 26th of June, 1730. This was just north of Lac de Pierre-Percee and about 80km west of Strasbourg, France.  His mother Françoise B. Grandblaise, and father, Nicolas Messier had twelve children. His father worked in the Prince of Salm&#8217;s administration as a court usher… <a class="continue-reading-link" href="https://allans-stuff.com/2017/10/03/charles-messier/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am constantly seeing people asking for eyepiece recommendations so I thought I would address this problem. To start, I have created a video on my YouTube channel talking about the basics of eyepieces. You can see this video at https://youtu.be/KTB_C6v0rQw. Even after learning more about eyepieces, the question remains, what eyepieces are worth investing in? To solve this problem I have created a list which attempts to give you a recommendation for brands and models of eyepieces over several different price points. Keep in mind that these are generic recommendations for most people but there are always exceptions based on… <a class="continue-reading-link" href="https://allans-stuff.com/2017/09/08/recommended-telescope-eyepieces/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I have had a YouTube channel for a long time but never really developed it until recently. Now I have started putting up astrophotography tutorials, astrophotography videos, reviews, and much more at a breakneck pace mainly aimed at astrophotography for beginners. Just last weekend I put around five videos up with several more in process. Just this weekend I added the following videos: How to connect a DSLR or other camera to your telescope Orion Stratus Eyepiece Review Orion SkyQuest XT8 Classic Dobsonian Review Zhumell Z8 Dobsonian Telescope Review Explore Scientific AR127 Refractor Review Orion SkyView Pro GOTO Mount Review… <a class="continue-reading-link" href="https://allans-stuff.com/2016/12/20/astrophotography-tutorials-youtube/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Last night was the brightest supermoon in seventy years, or so they say. Unfortunately I was not doing anything special for the occasion although I did get to spend a few minutes out at the observatory and took a few pictures. So what exactly is a supermoon? Let&#8217;s start answering that question with the fact that the moon&#8217;s orbit around the earth is not a perfect circle but more of an ellipse. At times that means the moon is closer to the earth than at other times. A supermoon is when you have a full (or new although you can&#8217;t… <a class="continue-reading-link" href="https://allans-stuff.com/2016/11/15/brightest-supermoon-seventy-years/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>
