Please, everyone, be aware that looking at a full moon through a scope can
do serious damage to your vision. Astronomy buffs always use a filter on
their scopes when viewing the moon.  A half moon is much easier on the eyes,
but even then you should have a lunar filter on your scope.

You should NEVER look at the full moon through an unfiltered scope.
