Nice one Mandy!!!

to Ice In Space!

I see you did your homework and purchased a nice "little" scope

12 inch Dobsonian, way to start small!!!

Welcome aboard, and thanks for the contribution.

Cheers

Chris

Check out the "Our Community" and Link pages on the IIS menu on the left for some Astronomy societies and clubs as well as suppliers websites. or just google for your area.

Cheers again

I agree with Chris, you should go to one of the viewing nights that many of the astronomical clubs hold every year and have a look through different scopes which will help you decide what is good and what you don't like. I did this years ago and although I have just managed to get my own Dobsonian it is what I knew I wanted once I looked through a variety of different scopes on a viewing night. Good Luck[/quote]
