With a 200mm scope, you'll be able to see lots of detail, depending on your "seeing" (atmospheric conditions). You won't see rocks on Mars, though, but neither would a 20" scope. http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/..../winking70.gif Have a look in the "Solar System" section, under "Images" to see some of the photos forum members have posted to get an idea.

>> I think my telescope sux, I have look up for Mars yesterday night and what I saw is just a ball of orange shining light. Dont look like a planet at all, look like a star. But Im pretty sure that is Mars. And I look up to Jupiter and Venus and I actually wait for them to come up at 5am, Jupiter look the same like Mars a small shining ball. And Venus is all a big shining ball. All of them have no details at all, and I tried to search for galaxy, I spent almost 3 hours out there and scroll through the whole night sky and see nothing but same old thousands of star with either orange light and white light.
And hey I know what im looking at as I download a probably call stellarium, if i get that name correct. And i know whats up there. Yesterday night there are a few galaxy out there. Maybe I just cant find it or my telescope cant see it.

What eye pieces did you get with your telescope? If you look at your eye pieces, there might be some sort of number there. Ex. 25mm. In general, the higher the number on the eye piece, the less magnification, and the wider the view. A 9mm eye piece will give you a more MAGNIFIED view than a 25mm.

>> I got two, a 25mm and a 10mm.
