Well, that's almost big enough!

You need to have magnification of about 120x or more to get all that light in your eyeball.

I suppose a 1-1.2m mirror might be in order for specialised visual use (fainter galaxies & planetaries) in the 200x+ range.

Any bigger than that is for CCD/astrophotography use only.
