John Dobson Memorial

Duration: 10:30
Updated: 05 Mar 2014

Vedanta Society Hollywood California February 23rd 2014 *I'll offer one correction here in the scripted words; at 2:10 ~ 2:18 it states that Dobson ground "lenses" from ship porthole glass. It should read that he ground large "Newtonian reflector mirrors". Also that the Newtonian telescope tubes that he used were "shipping tubes". It should read that these tubes were "sono-tubes" [heavy oiled and turned paper product, and not cardboard as some people mistakenly called them] that are used for concrete pouring of commercial construction site building.

20140415 John Dobson és a Dobson-forradalom (Mizser Attila)

Duration: 77:53
Updated: 17 Apr 2014

A huszadik század utolsó harmadának amatőrcsillagászatát szinte átformálta egy egyszerű műszer, a Dobson-távcső, amely nem több és nem kevesebb, mint egy egyszerű Newton azimutális mechanikán. Egyszerű eszközökkel, olcsón elkészíthető ez a távcsőtípus, amely már oly sok örömöt szerzett emberek millióinak. A távcsőtípus születésétől, a legkisebb Dobsonoktól a távcsőóriásokig követjük végig a típus evolúcióját, és közben tisztelettel adózunk a nemrégiben elhunyt John Dobsonnak.
