Over at cloudynights.com, in the classic telescopes forum, someone recently posted some photos of telescopes at an observatory in Copenhagen. They were on the order of 12- and 20-inch scopes, originally built in the 1920s. It got me thinking: I tend to admire smaller (less than, say, 40 inches) scopes because I can imagine myself actually using them; as opposed to a big scope which seems so "remote" (perhaps because of the complex instrumentation used instead of jamming the old eye up to the eyepiece for a look-see). Anyone have a similar opinion? Different?
