Finally, After Ten Years of Searching for the Answer

[Scott Harrington]

Hi All,

Ten years ago on CloudyNights I asked the question "Einstein's Cross -- Minimum Aperture Visible In?" I was a greenhorn then. Didn't know much, but I was eager to learn. I've since learned how the marriage of good observations to curiosity and skilled research can unlock treasure chests never thought visible. It's been breathtaking to see just how much can be seen in smaller telescopes if one is fearless and cunning.

Today I just posted my own answer "Is Einstein's Cross Visible in a 10-inch? Yes. And Here's My Argument". Take a look and see if you agree.
