Astrónomo aficionado, ¿observatorio astronómico? - Conferencia de Rainer Ehlert

Have you ever thought about building your own observatory to gaze at the stars every night? Or to do astrophotography? What aspects should you consider before starting construction? How do you build a professional, functional, and durable astronomical observatory at home? Engineer Rainer Ehlert, founder of the website ASTROFORO.net and one of the most renowned astrophotographers in Mexico today, shares his valuable advice in this lecture on building a top-notch home observatory, drawing on his experience of having already built three observatories and having advised on the design and construction of others both in Mexico and abroad. Rainer Ehlert specializes in the analysis and design of mechanical and electronic components used by amateur and professional astronomers. His current observatory features a high level of automation that allows for remote control of the telescopes and mounts for capturing astronomical images. This lecture was part of the 26th National Meeting of Amateur Astronomers, held from October 23 to 25, 2015, at the Alfa Planetarium and organized by the Alfa Planetarium Astronomical Society. http://www.sapa.org.mx Subscribe to our channel and don't miss any episodes!
