@estherschindler I got a 8" Dob for my first scope, easy to set up and use. they are also inexpensive and you can get great views even in light polluted skies.
@estherschindler Oddly I am picking up a spotting scope on Thursday.
20-60zoom x 70mm.
Mostly for wildlife watching, but you can bet I'll be pointing that sucker at the moon! 🤣
