Capricorn Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 In answer to would you see Jupiter like that - No.At 100x Jupiter looks little bigger then a small pea.To "see" anything at that apparent size would need 300x mag and for that clarity I wouldn't like to guess.

Chris H Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 A member here has the next scope up from the 114eq, he has the 130eq he is johnkirkpatrick send him a private message and ask him what he thinks of his scope? He is selling it at the mo I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
