    Yes. I recommend you to use for example the telephoto lens Pentacon 135 mm f 2.8 with a CMOS camera ZWO ASI 120 MM and the equatorial mount Skywatcher EQ3–2. The budget would be around 300 euros if you buy them in Ebay. I think it is better explained with a video: youtube.com/…

The steps to detect the exoplanet are the following:



  1. Find out when is the exoplanet going to transit the star with the Exoplanet Transit Database.

  2. With a program called SharpCap, take for example 5-second exposures with a gain of 1 for 3 hours.

  3. Once the transit has finished, with a program called ‘AstroImageJ’ open all the images, select the target star and for example a couple of reference stars, and perform multi-aperture photometry to detect the light curve.

            One-line joke

            A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
