"The Soviets had promised the French that two of their Stéréo-1 instruments would be sent to Mars during the 1971 window, but since one was lost on Kosmos 419 which had officially nothing to do with a Mars mission, Soviet officials were forced to keep silent about its fate."

"[Mariner 9] is expected to crash onto the Martian surface sometime around 2020."

I guess that *DOES* count as "interesting".

So, a parent acquired some sort of 76 mm Celestron firstscope.
* UmbralRaptop
hopes it has a decent mount, a red dot sight, and takes 1.25" eyepieces.
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: what about 50,8 mm eyepieces
<UmbralRaptop>
egg|zz|egg: that's just silly here.
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: admittedly on a 76 mm yes :-p
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: however
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: have you considered
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: the ANBOfinder
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: 80 mm aperture, with a 50,8 mm eyepiece :D
<UmbralRaptop>
Hah
<egg|zz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: tbh even if that 76 mm scope doesn't natively take 31,75 mm eyepieces, there is probably an eyepiece holder that will work for that focuser
<egg|zz|egg>
the focuser should be large enough
<UmbralRaptop>
Sometimes.
<egg|zz|egg>
(the 60 mm ANBOscope worked with 31,75 mm eyepieces with a new eyepiece holder at least)
* UmbralRaptop
annoyingly has run across a 112 mm or so Meade that only accepted 24.5 mm eyepieces.
