Well, I've always been fascinated by the cosmos, and recently my interest has become greater.
So what i want to do is to observe the heavens, using Stellarium as my guide, from my bedroom window (my vantage point
).
So i put it to you, the people of the USB forums: what would be a fairly priced, decent quality telescope for an amateur? Also, what type?
I already have some things i really want to see, like Jupiter, Mars, Venus, and a star cluster near the Orion constellation.
I'll appreciate any help you throw.
