They just posted to the archives an APOD for every day they missed during the shutdown.
Does anyone in this group have a a recommendation(s) for a telescope under $1500, preferably under 1K, that I can use for the following purposes.
Observe far off space objects, planets stars, Andromeda etc.
Take clear photos with high end digital camera (cost of mount for camera is excluded feom my price range.)
Preferably able to track to the object using an app to at least get me close.
I live in a very dark sky area and can see the milky way from my porch, with naked eye, usually between April and September, quite well.
I have done some online research but the reviews are hit and miss and the best options given all seem to be fron fellas pushing certain companies.
My intent is to photograph space objects & have them printed and framed for man cave.
I already have taken photos of eclipses in 2017 abd the more recent ones in 2022/2023. I have an equatorial mount for my camera etc.
But I’m looking to get into more space objects and planetary photography.
