This is certainly what's on my mind as I observe with my 12". How much more detail will I see through a bigger scope? I've set an upper limit on aperture fever, though, as I don't want to be using step ladders etc. I'm looking forward to the Border Stargaze in August to get more of an idea. I think I'll shelve this current option until I'm more prepared.

Thanks for all the input!
