Hayley, some good advice from Roger, join a local Astro group and see what they are using. The $180 you have to spend would go a long way towards a better telescope, for example an 8 inch Dob.

Aperture rules, the bigger the scope the better the image, 200mm (8 inches) is often regarded as the minimum aperture to aim for.
