Re: A Case for GOTO

A wonderfully written article, it pretty much sums up my feeling on GOTO entirely.
As my first full year of my obsrving (much of it with GOTO) draws to a close, I am humbled by all there is to know and learn about the wonders of the heavens. Undoubtedly, GOTO has made the tremendous difference between frustration and success - and has allowed me to view the deep space vistas I would otherwise have never gotten to see with the precious little observing time I try to set aside each month. It also leaves me wanting to know and learn more, and the greater good is that I HAVE been learning the night sky as a result of GOTO, whereas my telescope may instead have been sitting in some box in the attic.
