Thanks for the advice so far dudes. Keep it comming!
Just another quick question, which may be a silly question. But, when you look through a newtonian telescope, is everything upside down? Basically, if I looked up at the sky and tracked a planet with my naked eye in a certain direction, would it be viewed going in the exact opposite direction in the newtonian? Weird! How do people put up with that trippy stuff? Is it easy to get used to? Is there any way to reverse it to see "correctly"?
Oh, and another question. Are these scopes good to view the sun? Obviously I'd need some sort of eyepiece filter. But perhaps it will still be too bright to use on the sun even with a filter?
