Both Canon and Nikon are very good cameras.Regardless of what you choose,be aware you enter a 'System' of one or the other.Its best to think on what future photography may hold for you.The reason why Canon tends to be more popular on this and many forums is the great range of lenses and other gear they make for Canon cameras.

Another option is Pentax,there is a chap that visits our property he has a K5 body,the low level noise is amazing,way ahead of Canon,these bodies might be very good for astro work because of that,the down side is Pentax lens range much less than Canon,and tend to be super expensive,even second hand.

This forum regularly has good second hand Canon gear for sale,which makes life easier.

Good luck on what ever you buy.
