I got to attend a seminar for the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation led by Scott Altman and I’m geeking out so hard!
I’m just a nerd who loves space and I got to attend this seminar today during work hours because my department works with the ASF. I am really stoked I got to attend. It really made my geek heart happy.

Binoculars for someone left eye blind?
I'm trying to start out. Everything I read says start with binoculars. I have a pair of no names. My left eye isnt completely blind but it needs a very different optic. On my no name's, I get pretty close if I move one eyepiece all the way out and the other all the way in but its still not a clear as using 1 eye.
