Attaching your Nikon DSLR camera to a telescope lets you photograph distant objects in the night sky such as the moon, planets and stars. Long-exposure photographs reveal far more detail than you can see with the unaided eye, rendering in vivid color objects otherwise only faintly visible through a telescope. Use your DSLR to capture breathtaking images of the universe to share with friends and family or to document your observing experiences as an amateur astronomer.
