D_Sorensen Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Hi! I've ben fascinated by space and everything that goes with it all my life. Now I have decided to become a stargazer and have bought a cheap secondhand 700/76 scope. No doubt that it's a poor and wobly scope BUT still it has already brought me my first clear view of the Moon and a wobly but cool jupiter experience. I'm looking forward to draw on The massive experience and knowledge in here ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloudsweeper Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Hi - I had a similar 'scope last year and it got me off to a good start. Easy to aim and use, and giving good results with the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, double stars, M42, etc.. Have fun! Doug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
