Just finished setting up my new telescope, thought i would put some picks up.
Its a Skywatcher 200P on an EQ5 mount..... Its bigger than me!

It looked so much smaller in the pics... I dont know where I will keep it!

still its a nice problem to have.

anyone else have a telescope..? whats your set up?

Cor, I don't know quite what I was expecting, but that's a lot bigger than I was thinking. Looks like a very nice telescope.

I don't currently have any kind of star gazing device, not a lot of point being stuck in the middle of light pollution central unfortunately, I do have the intentions of buying one once me and Robyn move next years.

That's very impressive. I'd love a monster like that if I had the room.

Nice! the only Telescope I've had the pleasure of owning was a £4.99 one from the London Science Museum when I was 6

I can't seem to find specs for it, but it looks like a good size Schmidt-Cassegrain reflector so it should have a pretty nice resolution to it.

Bet that set you back a fair bit.
