Ask HN: Any recommended beginner friendly space telescope? Posted by qatanah on Monday December 02, 2019 @01:45AM from the ask-hn dept. A view of Jupiter and Saturn would be nice. ( 1 comment | 2 points | on HN )
Refractors give a nice contrasty image for planets in our solar system.
I would say they are probably something like 1/5th the cost you usually need to spend for the same image quality.
