Yeah I am planning on returning the Barlow.
My scope came with a 25mm and a 10mm EP.
What should I go for as a replacement?
I wouldn't mind a better view of the planets and some DSOs.
At the moment I can see Jupiters bands and moons. Saturn and rings.
But Mars appears as just a bright red star.
With my current EPs I'm having trouble finding some DSO objects.
Spend a couple of hours last night looking for the southern pinwheel and the sombrero galaxies with no luck.
According to all acounts my scope should be able to see most of the messier objects.
Is it the eyepieces holding me back? Or more likely viewing conditions, light pollution. Etc?
Thanks
