I know nothing of your finances, but starter telescopes are much less expensive than I realised. I’m kicking myself that I’d always assumed the starting prices to be in the thousands when you actually only have to pay a couple of hundred.
Sure, it’s not fantastic but it’s a fairly small outlay. I can’t even begin to put into words how cool it was to see Jupiter and 3 moons. It was only a big dot with 3 smaller dots alongside it, but it got me hooked.
I’m now putting together a budget for my next upgrade.
