Hi everyone, my name is Den and I am new to astronomy.

I have just purchased a Sky-Watcher 130p and I am really looking forward to getting statrted.

I am now in my late 50s, and I am in semi retirement due the health problems, I have had an interest in astronomy for as long as I can remember, but up until now I have never owned a telescope.

I look forward to interesting conversations in the future.

Hi Den, a very warm welcome to the Lounge.  I retired about four years ago because of ill health, it's a pain isn't it?  Since then I have not been able to use my big scope (the 200P but my frac serves me well.  The SW 130P is a good place to start, not too big and not too small.  Enjoy your new found hobby, it is certainly consuming for me.
