v1ks Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Hi All, Merry Xmas and Happy New Year in Adv. New to the forums and hobby, lots of detailed information on the forums which is always great for new joiners like me. Yet to purchase a scope, still researching on what one to get as my son (9) and daughter (5) are keen too. I have had few suggestion from FLO so will be checking them out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu1smartcookie Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Hi and a warm welcome to SGL . You've already started well by doing some research . Think about what you want to see in the night sky .. ie planets/Moon and double stars or deep sky objects , that might narrow the search down a bit . Good luck and clear skies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterW Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Welcome. Loughton Astro society who meet in Theydon bois run talks and observing and could be worth joining. Escaping further into Essex should provide some better skies. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
