Dobson's Worst Take - Astrophotography is Pointless.
Channel: Dylan O'Donnell
Date: 2024-03-01

I'd like to think John Dobson and Domey McDomeface would get along and he'd officially recant this silly statement. 

Thanks to the show sponsor High Point Scientific. You can build my entire setup with the links below: https://bit.ly/3oW0PMx

But it's a serious setup. It's not portable or anything. You have been warned. I like em big, like John Dobson. 

Thanks also to Michael Dean who has been meming this quote for a while. It was definitely deserving of a response. 

To all the visual astronomers - show me what you're looking at! Oh that's right, you can''t. Without a CAMERA lol.
