Even though my eye would never allow me to effectively use a telescope, I enjoy the pictures she posts. Or, perhaps in some ways, if I had gone into astronomy, I might have done okay. I never had more than 1/4 of an eye to begin with, and most average telescopes only have an eyepiece that works with one eye, not two. With all the updates, and fascinating technology, imagine begin able to view the stars with the tech that is available. And perhaps using some of that technology to help those who have even less vision than I myself do. Or as I myself may one day have.
