Through my telescope you can see it about the size of holding a 5p at arms length away from you

Your son may have mental health issues

What sort of camera?
Edit: Oh I see, a webcam.
(I helped save b3ta! Kroney, Fri 11 Jul 2014, 11:45, Reply)
It's a modified webcam with an adapter to replace the eyepiece. You take a video sequence and software tracks and 'stacks' the frames to produce one image, you can set it to disguard frames of lesser quality etc.
I've only messed about with it really, but some people have achieved really wicked pictures.

You can get screw-on adaptors to get an SLR on the end of your telescope.
The scope then acts like a fucking huge camera lens. I've seen some pretty cool images from that set up.

NO WAI!
That's pretty cool.

All you need is a telescope, an equatorial mount, a laptop, a modified webcam, and image stacking software and you're away!!
