If you have a 700mm scope, I'll be right over. That'd be about 27". I suspect that's your focal length...<br /><br />Here's a detailed chart: http://media.skyandtelescope.com/documents/tu24.pdf <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>.</p><p><font size="3">bipartisan</font>  (<span style="color:blue" class="pointer"><span class="pron"><font face="Lucida Sans Unicode" size="2">bī-pär'tĭ-zən, -sən</font></span></span>) [Adj.]  Maintaining the ability to blame republications when your stimulus plan proves to be a devastating failure.</p><p><strong><font color="#ff0000"><font color="#ff0000">IMPE</font><font color="#c0c0c0">ACH</font> <font color="#0000ff"><font color="#c0c0c0">O</font>BAMA</font>!</font></strong></p> </div>

Welcome to Space.com!<br /><br />Just to let you know, rather than starting a new thread on this object, you should have asked the question in the existing one referring to 2007 TU24.<br />It takes a while to learn things like that, just a suggestion for next time.<br /><br />Wayne <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.
