Bored_and_no_justbored asked:
I’ve had my telescope for a month now and when I point it (200x mag) at Mars and I see a red blurry object, then I point my telescope at saturn and it looks really sharp and you can tell it’s 3D, and see the rings perfectly and stuff. Why is this? Why such a big difference between the two?

He has wanted a telescope for some time, and we would like to get him one for christmas but I dont want to get him something that he isn’t going to be able to see with. I want to stay in about the $100 range and would like to be able to see alot more than the naged eye.

shekinah asked: I really want to get a telescope for my sister’s Christmas present. I want the best quality I can get for my money (under $200).
So far I have this in mind…
http://www.amazon.com/Celestron-21049-127EQ-PowerSeeker-Telescope/dp/B0007UQNKY
She’ll be using it to look at the stars. I would love to get a telescope that is inexpensive, with great quality, and added accessories.
