This is excellent information for a beginner like me. Thanks
Dude..that looks like Arkansas….thanks for the info.

Thank you for showing me how to use a Barlow lens. I have been given a telescope with no instructions and wasn’t sure how it fitted together – I do now thanks.JIm
I know you did not mention variable barlow lens but are the 2-3 variable any good and would you recomend them or are they low quality.

There are always possibilities.
The best advice I can give you is probably one you don't want to hear.
Find an Astronomy club in your area. They all have "Star Parties" where the public is invited.
There you will get a chance to look through lots of Telescopes at lots of objects. This will give you a realistic idea of what you can expect from the various sizes and makes of Telescopes. These folks will gladly answer any questions you may have. You will learn more in an hour at one of these events than you would in a month of reading about it.

Amateur Astronomy for Beginners: Eyepieces
Russia’s proposal for an Armageddon-style mission to deflect the space rock Apophis seemed bold, but it’s not the only one fretting about a catastrophic impact on Earth. The U.S. National Research Council (NRC) released a new report that calls for an international asteroid defense agency that can organize a proper mission to counter possible asteroid threats, New Scientist reports. The NRC repeats some grim facts about Earth’s current lack of readiness to deal with giant space rocks flying at it. Current sky surveys will not be able to find 90 percent of near-Earth objects that are 460 feet (140 m) or larger by 2020, as the U.S. Congress instructed NASA in 2005 to ensure they could. As always, a lack of funding has proved the main problem here. An asteroid-hunting space telescope could go a long way toward playing catch-up and reaching the survey goal by 2022, but at the hefty cost of more than $1 billion. Even if scientists spot a looming asteroid threat, few immediate solutions…

“clap, clap” SATURN. I wish the Celestron at the planetarium I work at was that easy. The clutch in the tracking base apparently wore out from so much use.

(PhysOrg.com) — In general, galaxies can be thought of as “social” – hanging out in groups and frequently interacting. However, this recent NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image highlights how some galaxies appear to be hungry loners. These cosmic oddities have set astronomers on the “case of the missing neighbour galaxies”.
Last night, I managed to see Saturn's rings with a glorified pringles tube and a borrowed set of nice eyepieces, from my office window.
this helps.
The James Webb Space Telescope reached a mission-readiness landmark March 2, 2010 when its first primary mirror segment was cryo-polished to its required prescription as measured at operational cryogenic temperatures. This achievement sets the stage for a successful polishing process for the remaining 18 flight mirror segments.
RT Last year, NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope found a doughnut-shaped ring of Saturn invisible to most telescopes.
