Desire to see the more deep ancient lunar horizon landscapes lead me to build more larger instruments,
since last autmn,s first light I have 10 nights observations with my homemade 13″ refractor [lens from China 320/3700] which has a comfortable fixed focuser in equartorial mount.
With a glass 5 times more heavier than 8″ lens this 13″ shows far majesic views of the moon and planets than the superb 8″…… and but at least on the moon limbs , the details seems to equal…. yet.
Yesterday, on a good seeing night , I could see a great view of the saturn that I have never seen yet. —————-
