I was looking for the proper forum for this today and I hope I found it.
Can anyone here comment on Timothy Ferris' Seeing in the Dark astronomy film that aired on PBS last fall 2007?
I am thinking of purchasing it if for nothing else, to refer to Steve Omeara's sketching from the eyepiece sequence in the film.
I am not sure that I am known already here in other related forums. I entered as a member a month ago to start a gallery of my astronomy related art and photography.>

thank you,

Hi Mark,
Welcome to CN and to the Stellar Media forum. I like your solar sketches/art.
Here is a link to a very long posting in this forum about the film. I really enjoyed it.
I am looking forward to the new Discovery Channel series, When We Left the Earth: the NASA Missions.
hope this helps,

I really enjoyed Seeing in the dark but it is more of a motivational than how to. If you are a Netflix member they do have it for rent.

Thanks, I just found it at a local University that will share/rent it to the University library that I worked as adjunct professor of astronomy at in 2004.
