Unmanned Spaceflight.com _ Chit Chat _ Hi all! Looking for recommendations...

Posted by: ILoveKnowledge May 16 2012, 08:43 AM

Hi all! I hope I made this post in the right section! I am sorry to be an inconvenience but I was wondering if some of you could provide me with advice/recommendations as I was looking in purchasing a telescope in the $1200-$1800 range. There are so many to choose from from the companies that sell it but wanted to see if any of you had any specific recommendations for me to get the most bang out of my buck for my skyviewing. I am what you can call an "amateur" as I have a great love for the cosmos but did not start getting into using actual telescopes until I took an astronomy lab course this past semester and now I am hooked and want to get my own. I am looking forward to some of your recommendations. Thanks again!

UMSF Members...

While the above request is not an unreasonable one to make, we would prefer it if answers are sent as a PM direct message rather than a post here.

Thanks
