hey guys, I just had an idea to buy telescope, i am getting more interested on the astronomy and space. I saw an ad about telescope today so i thought would be great to invest my saving on telescope. I had many questions on mind so i thought maybe i will find help here.
- what is the best telescope for beginner like me ? my budget will be 400-500 $ CA ?
- Is it possible to use the telescope inside the city ? i live in Toronto and the sky not that clear most of the time ?
-Where is the best store in toronto to buy telescope from ?
-Is there any Guide sites on the internet for telescope beginners ?
thanks in advance, peace :)

Check out this website from a former Toronto resident: http://www.gaherty.ca/
He has a couple of Canadian telescope stores in his links, as well as advice on urban astronomy and some useful links.

That a pretty expensive scope for a beginner, I would say more like $100- $200 unless your really into it. No city is very good for watching the stars, too much light pollution. Living in T O you will have to go a long ways to get out of it.
