amateur telescope making of
- Many amateur astronomers still choose to fabricate their own instruments, for the pride of accomplishment, the gaining of knowledge and the insurance of quality. Telescope making is at the heart of the Springfield Telescope Makers - after all it is two thirds of our club’s name - and on these pages we hope to show you that you too can make your own telescope - and it can be an excellent performer!
- Epic film (Wikipedia)
Epic films have large scale, sweeping scope, and spectacle. The term is slightly ambiguous, sometimes designating a film genre and at other times simply big-budget films. Like epics in the classical literary sense, it is often focused on a heroic character. An epic’s ambitious nature helps to set it apart from other genres such as the period piece or adventure film.
