This was a really great talk by Mr. Fiske from CloudyNights forum. I love his takes there and he was excellent here as well. As the other commenter said, if the audio was a better, this would have been a brilliant talk. Thanks guys :)
Stephen Tonkin's newsletter's last issue was Dec 2023. He has them all archived on his website.
At 121:00 for the extra wide angle binoculars they are really good at being able to show whole constellations in light polluted skies and really helps in locating stars to start star hopping.
You guys need to work on your audio. Breathing into the mic and then later constant static that drops out. People will but up with bad video over bad audio.
Nice talk but that audio was just a killer of enthusiasm
