  1. Hello all and all - Wanting some much needed help. I'm totally green, amateur Astronomy, hobbyist. I've had this telescope for 4 years. Just recently I was able to align it and try it out. To my surprise, I have not a clue when eye piece to start with. I understand the magnificaton and how to calculate the power of the eye pieces. FL/the eyepiece power, 650/25mm = 26xmagnification. That was only an example. But My question is, what eye pieces are suitable for viewing the planets, Mars, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter? I have assorted eyepiece kit that my wife bought from celestron. right off the top of the list I have 2xBarlow, 6mm, 9mm,17mm, 35mm, 11 or 12mm. Wondering which eye piece would be suitable for viewing Jupiter for example. I want maximum magnification, with hopes of seeing it some what close up in the eyepiece.? Anyone available to comment or make suggestions, are most welcome. Thanks!
