Tks...appreciate your help. I'm a newbie but still interested.  $400. is low , I guess but just trying to figure it out

Budget is  $400.  I'm just starting so this may be really low, I don't really know much about cost of these things now. Keep getting notifications online now about purchasing one. Google knows I'm looking, I guess...lol

I am just stating to gaze the lights and planets. Can anyone recommend a good starting telescope for looking at planets and stars. Not to complicated a system but a good starting telescope.  I have NO IDEA ABOUT TELESCOPES but want to learn. I am 68 yrs of age but willing to put in the time to learn. Don't want to start with a really expensive telescope but can get a better one as I learn about them.

Thanks for your help
