Dark Sky Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Im new to the forum. My intrest in astronomy started last year when my dad purchased a telescope (skywatcher 80ed pro +eq5 goto). Since then I got my first telescope this Christmas (skywatcher star travel 80) and have used it as much as is possible with the weather. I intend to upgrade to a bigger scope and eq mount soon to further my astro photography skills. This website has been a great fountain of knowledge and has helped me a great deal so ive signed up to say thankyou and hope in time I can return the favour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Sky Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 Well I'm bidding on a explorer 200p and motorized Eq5 on eBay at the minute so I hope to post some reports soon, if I win that is. I've only photographed Jupiter, the moon and the orion nebula so far but I'm setting myself a goal of seeing the supernova in m82. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baggywrinkle Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Welcome to SGL. Star Travel scopes punch well above their weight and are an excellent starter as well as a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
