I really didn't know what to do with all of the Obama campaign stickers I have been given during all of the debate party's and phone-banking meetings at my house in the last few months...So, I decided to cover my cheap 4" reflector telescope with them... it kinda looks cool in my opinion. Even though it is not exactly a precise, expensive scientific/optical instrument, it has done a relatively good job of showing several of Jupiter's moons (and the "Great Red Spot"), the mountains and craters of our moon, and the reddish orb of our occasionally close neighbor Mars in exquisite detail. It has provided many evenings of awe for my son and I and friends, marveling at the clockwork of our solar system, and the beauty beyond our world.
