| − | Sometimes it is just too much trouble to go out side to observe the Moon. Or it is too cold, or there are too many mosquitos. I don't know if these were factors influencing François, but he simply points his telescope out an open window and projects the Moon onto his ceiling. I can imagine sitting on the couch, comfortably leaning back to enjoy a very large full Moon little more than an arm's reach away, with Dubussy's soothing <em>[http://www.last.fm/music/Claude+Debussy/_/Clair+de+Lune Clair de Lune]</em> playing in the background. I have a simple prism sitting on a window ledge in my living room and am delighted to have a smeared spectrum slowly move across my ceiling, think how much more entrancing it would be to have the Moon on the ceiling. Perhaps there is a business opportunity to sell window-mounted small telescopes that automatically track the Moon or the Sun as they move across the sky.<br /> | + | Sometimes it is just too much trouble to go out side to observe the Moon.
