Your scope will rotate the view 180 degrees, but also remember that you're already upside down since you're looking "north" from the southern hemisphere.

It's a long time since I looked at Jupiter through a refractor, but maybe someone here can confirm that jupiter shows south at the top when viewed from down here.

so using a reflector reorients the view to the natural north-up view.

cheers, Bird
