Yes indeed! Spain, next year! (And Australia, the year after that! ;-) )

I'm also wondering about the feasibility of taking these gizmos on airplanes, what with the Lithium battery packs, etc.

What we really need (for some definition of need) is a robot-filter-remover, timed to deal with the two critical times (first and last instant of totality; 2nd and 3rd contacts from memory). Anybody out there interested in building something like that? It would be purely a passion project, because it could only be used a few times a decade...

I’ve flown with it a handful of times without issue. Both in cabin luggage and checked in but I guess I’m risking it in the latter.

Not sure how a robot filter remover would work on the DWARF 3 that is reliable and works around loss of alignment and the exposure adjustment. I would love to find a solution for next year. Also wonder how can one test it out beforehand. I don’t want to burn the sensor ha ha

		Agreed! Also, I just found this (total hack, but cool)! [1] [1] https://github.com/nsuan/TelescopeFilter
