All Moved In, Now I Need a New Telescope

Well, we survived the trip and have moved into our new house on Vancouver Island. It was pretty easy on me, since we hired movers for the first time in 11 moves. The place is great, with a massive backyard, and lots of space. One of my neighbors informed me that we were moving into the cleanest house in the city. Apparently the former owners had a reputation for being… meticulous.

As I’d hoped, the skies are much much darker, so I’m thinking of getting a new telescope, but I need your help. What do you think I should get? If you love your telescope, let me know what you’ve got and a few paragraphs of why you like it. Take a photo of you and your telescope, if you dare. I’ll publish an article with a bunch of your photos and reviews, so everyone can take advantage of your recommendations.

Send me an email at info@universetoday.com.

Thanks!
