Any telescope experts?
My son is interested in Astronomy (I may have a little interest also). Anyway, I am going to buy him a telescope, but have not clue where to start.
He has a cheap one now that is completely worthless, expect mayby to look at sun bathers. So I would like to buy him something he can use.
As far as money $500 to $750. I do not neccessarily need one with electronics or gadgets on it, just a powerful Newtonian, telescope. I assume they are reflection telescopes and would like one with good resolution. Most importantly one that is simple to use. He is ten years old and I do not want to frustrate him.
Any ideas for getting the most out of my money.
Thank
