Acid Bit

 When looking to buy a telescope, you will find that they could easily cost you several hundred dollars, even over a thousand dollars, for a good telescope. This can make serious room to find a telescope best buy. As you read this article, you will find how I go about finding the best places to buy telescopes.

To buy a good telescope, the best places to buy telescopes would seem to be at a store that specializes in telescopes and astronomy. But, the truth is, that these stores can be hard to find. They are not like McDonald’s, and it is unlikely you have a store locally.

If you are lucky enough to have a specialized store that specializes in telescopes, then you have likely found one of the best places to buy telescopes. So, what happens if you don’t have a local store that sells telescopes?

At this point, you can go 2 ways with finding the best places to buy telescopes, and find a telescope best buy. The first is to buy a new telescope or buy a used telescope. If you really want to find a telescope best buy, then used telescopes can be a great way to find a bargain.

Finding them is not so difficult, with a bit of research. Classified ads in local papers sometimes can unearth a gem. Another option if this doesn’t work is to place an ad in the wanted section of a local paper.

The problem with buying used telescopes is that it likely is old, and may have some problems. It is important to look at the optics and the tripod and mount, to see if it has any damage. Even little damage with the optics, can mean that your telescope is not as powerful as a new model, with lower specifications.

In spite of this, sometimes you can find a real bargain. If you are looking to buy a big telescope, then used telescopes, can give you a cheaper way to buy a telescope, at the best prices.

Specialist stores are great; however, if you have been to one, you will likely see high prices. The best way I get telescope best buys, is by going online. The internet connects the whole world, and finding specialist telescope stores online, seems to be very easy to do.

The prices online, I have found are significantly cheaper than any telescope store I have been to. Another interesting point, is that some of those specialist telescope stores, have websites, and their online prices, are usually cheaper, than in store prices!

This is usually down to the fact, that to the store, a website is a cheaper solution, than holding staff to sell the telescopes. This benefit generally comes back to you, with a telescope best buy. I find that online offers the best places to buy telescopes.

Here are some links that I have found offer the best resources: best places to buy telescopes - //telescope best buy - best place to buy Meade telescopes from. * Science Articles

What About Lucy? Is She The Missing Link?
By Russ Miller

 Lucy is another icon of purported evolution which Darwinists are reluctant to give up, even in the face of indisputable evidence that proves Lucy was nothing more than an ape conjured up to fool people into believing that Lucy was changing into a human.

Anthropologists proved in 1987 that Lucy was just an ape. Yet Lucy is still claimed as a missing link in textbooks around the world.

Lucy is the name given to the much-promoted fossilized skeleton that was discovered during 1974 in Ethiopia by anthropologist Donald Johanson. Lucy has served as the poster child for Darwinism ever since.

It was claimed that Lucy walked upright, just like a human walks upright. Darwinists also claimed that they knew it was a missing link because the knee was “slightly bigger” than a normal ape’s knee (proving that it was evolving into a human) and that its femur had to angle to the knee, just as a human femur angles to the knee.

However, what do the actual facts reveal?

Well, according to another one of the world’s best-known anthropologists, Richard Leakey, son of Louis Leakey, Lucy’s skull was so incomplete that most of it is “imagination made of plaster of Paris.” (The Weekend Australian, May 7-8, 1983, Magazine section, page 3.) Leakey stated that no firm conclusion could be drawn as to what species Lucy belonged to.

Scientifically speaking, Lucy is a member of a family of apes known as australopithecines, specifically Australopithecus Afarensis. Pithecus means ape, and as far back as 1987 scientists knew that Lucy was just an ape, and not a missing link between ape and man.

In 1987 Dr. Charles Oxnard, Professor of Anatomy and Human Biology at the University of Western Australia, wrote that although australopithecines were unique,

“Anatomists have concluded these creatures are not a link between ape and man, and did not walk upright in the human manner.” (Fossils, Teeth and Sex a New Perspectives on Human Evolution, Charles Oxnard, University of Washington Press, Seattle and London, 1987, page 227.)

Other skeleton finds of Australopithecus Afarensis have shown that they had curved toes and fingers for gripping tree limbs.

It is well documented that MANY humans have either slightly larger or slightly smaller than average-sized knees, and most tree-dwelling apes have angled femurs.

The facts prove that none of the australopithecines are a transitional link between apes and humans. Lucy and the other australopithecines reveal nothing about supposed human evolution, yet still today, Lucy adorns high school and college textbooks, usually depicted walking upright, just like a human.

While failing to hold any proof for Darwinian change, Lucy does reveal the desperation of the Darwinian faithful, and how easy it is to be fooled by misleading textbook information.
