A nice refractor, with an erecting eyepiece, would probably be suitable. Little maintenance, no collimation...warning DO NOT go to a department store buy a from a real telescope retailer. Saxon, WO, SkyWatcher etc would be a good place to start, perhaps 80mm or above. Televue are nice, but a bit more expensive. Check out the for sale on IIS as someone may actually be selling something.

Other than that, keep asking questions. There is no such thing as a dumb question, only dumb answers.

We are here to help you out...now which way did you come in?
