Simple Moon Video Setup - Using Celestron C90 MAK Telescope

Virtual Pathfinder video "Simple Moon Video Setup - Using Celestron C90 MAK Telescope". Produced 14 January 2020. Music by The Infinite Wave. This video shows three configurations for imaging the moon:

1. Eyepiece projection Imaging
2. Prime focus imaging without Barlow lens
3. Prime focus imaging with Barlow lens

The moon video clip within this video is shot with configuration nr 3. To get the more extreme magnification, one can use eyepiece projection in combination with Barlow lens. But it is only useful to a limited extent, due to the optical diffraction limit of the telescope, which depends on the aperture.
The atmosphere also sets a limit how small details can be resolved, typically one arc second in size.
