سلام...
ورقا جان انشاالله که میرین و اونو میخرین.بعد بازم انشاالله به ایران کوچ میکنی و ما تلسکوپ رو از شما قرض میکنیم و حالشو میبریم.به جان خودم اگر ایران بودی اجازه نمیدادم بهش دست بزنی یه راست که میخریدی میبردمش خونه .
ولی به هر حال گذشته از شوخی این تلسکوپی که ورقای عزیز انتخاب کرده چند وقت بهترین تلسکوپ متوسط جهان بود و هنوز هم شاید بشه گفت جز 5 تا تلسکوپ برتر دنیاست.مبارک باشه ، بخرش دیگه تا به خاطر اون هم شده یه سفر بیام (مثل گذشته هتل 4 ستاره و ماشین فراری کمتر نباشه)
