aboard the starship Ice In Space. You can check in anytime you like but you can never leave

My first telescope was a Celestron 76mm Reflector and i was blown away with what i could see. Moon craters, star clusters and bright Nebula like M42 in Orion
Your 130 eq will serve you well until you succumb to the inevitable apateure fever.
Don't hold back in asking any questions here as i have learnt so much just by surfing the posts from people only too willing to help

Edit- Ipone/Ipad apps like SkySafari and for the PC Stellarium help a lot as they tell you where certain object are in real time. And Skysafari has the compass option so you hold it up to the sky and it will show you on the screen what you are looking at
