Be ready to observe! Have the right accessories, instruments and stargazers’ charts with you so you can start navigating the sky straight away. Modern technology provides a whole range of information, apps and charts for your laptops, tablets and phones.
So what is the best telescope for you? The simple answer is: it’s the one that you think you’ll use the most often.
