A report of my visit at the Herzberger Teleskoptreffen by Thomas Grunge, September 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weekend promised good astronomical weather conditions and so I packed my bags and drove spontaneously from Osnabr\u00fcck to Je\u00dfnigk in southern Brandenburg. It was to be my first visit to the Herzberger Telescope Meeting<\/a> (HTT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After a quick search, I found the entrance to the HTT and signed up for three days. At the entrance, some astro dealers had set up. In the background you can see the Elsterland Observatory<\/a> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Just to the right of the observatory you can find a barbecue, bar and covered seating. In the permanent building on the right, a room is used for astronomical lectures. Sanitary facilities can also be found in this building. An additional toilet trailer is also still there. Overall, very well organized, I think. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The site was well filled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I had made an appointment and was warmly received by an acquaintance at the G\u00f6rlitzer Sternfreunde<\/a> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Camping like in the good old days (ouch, my back!). The small luggage was quickly set up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a few familiar faces at the site that I had already seen at the WHAT-Meeting <\/a>. Stefan from Gifhorn was again a popular meeting place with his 20\" Bino (thanks for the cheesecake ;-)). At night, all you had to do was follow the long line to find him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the day, the solar observation was a crowd puller. Here the sun could be seen in different wavelengths. In addition, the solar spectrum could be viewed in high resolution under expert guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kurrios were also some homemade creations. Particularly fascinating was a Bino with a \"red-green Bottle optic\" :-).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was an entertaining weekend. Everything fell into place here! Next year I will definitely pitch my tent on the HTT for the second time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, a round of the course from last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
