[QUOTE="James Snover, post: 9514488, member: 67454"] What Silver2003Cobra said. Astronomical telescopes turn everything upside down and invert left-to-right. They also don't always do well with near objects, "near" in this case being hot chicks on the beach. They will sometimes give you major color-fringing, whereas if you look at the moon, everything is fine. I would say get yourself a nice pair of Nikon 7x50 binoculars. You will be surprised at what you can see in the sky with those, they are cheaper than a telescope, and if you decide astronomy is not for you, you still have a good set of binoculars, not a telescope taking up space in your house or garage. If you decide you want to go nuts with astronomy, you can still use the binoculars. That's my dos centavos. Jim Snover Jim Snover [/QUOTE]
