When viewed from Earth using a SCT and a mirror diagonal this is the way you see it...
Celestron, I think you're the only one taking it seriously enough and starting a discussion from my light hearted comment that it's relative. You had 3 posts in before I even replied. Relax guy! The Internet is SERIOUS business!!!
If you had of mentioned the moons position with an "SCT Telescope" to start with then my discussion would have not been extended . Some things i do take serious since there is so many new beginners here that don't have a scope and using a camera lens for the first time . In this hobby it's best to explain thoroughly your reasons when in a debate . The other reason i kept going was because of your statement previously where you said you :
" Nope... I live in California. I love all the debate over the position of an object in space! Actually it's not only upside down but its reversed left-to-right horizontally since i'm using a mirror diagonal and not a prism diagonal. You could also just flip the image vertically and it takes care of both perspective changes ".
Now honestly , doesn't that sound like a debate starting when most of these new ppl here have no idea what your talking about since you did not mention a scope much less knowing what a diagonal is ?? Now tho since you have better explained yourself i can understand what your talking about cause i have an SCT . So with this part satisfied i will now bow out of the debate . All i ask is becareful explaining half the reason to new ppl . They don't have a clue .
