Three Great Options!

It is really important to shop around and get advice when buying a telescope. Here are two different options on different sides of the price spectrum.

Option 2: This is a great mid-range scope. It is a 'go-to scope' so it will find the planets and deep sky objects for you! It's also very easy to set up.

Option 3: This is a big fat high end telescope! The 8 inch diameter will allow you to see lots of faint galaxies!!! It's also a 'go-to' scope.
