jasonspaced Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi, I'm Jason. I just thought I'd say hello, after signing up. I thought I'd join this site to chat and also be able to get people's opinions on equipment. I have friends who practise astronomy and it's spmething I've always been into, so I'll be getting a new telescope soon, as a reward to myself. I'm sure there is a wealth of information available on here, so I'll read it over the next couple of weeks.Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonspaced Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Thanks a lot for the warm welcome!I've started to read some of the beginner's advice on here and have already found it useful, so thanks to all the people who have contributed to that. I have decided to get a Newtonian Reflector telescope, as I'm very much interested in viewing the deep sky objects and it seems like the one to get for this. When I get it started properly in a month or so from now (after I move home), I'll post a few pictures of what I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
