      That’s a hell of a lot of money for a single telescope.

      I mean, right here you can see telescopes being sold for $49.99 on Amazon. It makes one question the entire budgetary process behind this Euclid scope.

      EDIT: Not to mention that the Amazon one comes with a tripod, and as best I can tell from this article and Wikipedia, the Euclid scope doesn’t have anything of the sort. If we could get Josef Aschbacher here right now, I think that the no-tripod issue would definitely be an incisive question to raise with him.
