And actually, if you can, buy some good (astronomy) binoculars, they are more versatile and you are more likely to use them than lugging 40kg (counter weights, tripod, motor etc all add up) around.
Most (good) telescopes won't even focus on something as near as the next building.
Was "starring" an intended pun in a thread about telescopes?
Good job you didn't say "mooning" or "looking at Uranus"...
Is that a telescope in your pocket or are you just happy to meet me?
