Garden Shed for telescope storage - insulating etc?

Hi all

I've spent the last 2 weeks preparing an area in my garden for a garden shed, which will house my telescope, mount, accessories etc. Unfortunately it's not an observatory, just a storage place near where I set up. Will make setting up and tearing down a bit quicker.

So, the base is prepared now, and I picked the shed up on Saturday - now all I need to do is put the shed together which I'll do this weekend.

What else do I need to take into consideration for housing the scope + gear?

Should I insulate it? What with? How?
What about ventilation?
What about flooring?

The shed is a Utility 65 from Spanbilt. Not huge, but big enough to store what I need.

Thanks for help!
