sct v. Newtonian
Well can you please explain the difference, not the actual telescope, but what are they better at doing between the two the two types. For a start off it'll not be moving it once installed. I've built an area solely for astronomy and it's got a pier, and I've a 6" SCT that I'll take with me when I go bush.
I'll explain what I want to do that may help. my mine interest is in DSO's and also have just started A/P, don't know if that interest will last seems to be very involved, But I know that an interest in astronomy will, Been a eye and bino observer since I was 6 that's 60 years ago!
Also the simple Newtonian is a lot cheaper, as I'm looking for 12' or larger. Also while I'm at it any recommendations for a mount, as Ill not be moving it I thought an Equatorial would be the go?
