Introduction Compact

Don't know much about astronomy, but always been fascinated by the vastness of universe.

I bought small Mead reflector telescope a few months ago.
So far mostly used for watching moon.
But I was excited to see saturn's ring, and
found Jupiter's 4 moon(?).

Don't care much about Hollywood stars...
let's talk about real stars!
