You're doing quite a commendable job explaining things for the amateur beginners! You certainly have a knack for imparting information! And perhaps you possess more common sense than most professional astronomers! Keep up the great videos!

Thanks for the videos man! All of these really helped me make a decision for what kind of telescope and accessories I wanted to get. Hope you are doing well!
+Be aware Well, I've never used an equatorial mounting platform for a Dobsonian. Just did a quick search and they look really pretty awesome. I'm away travelling for the next few months, but maybe I'll have to look into more when I get back to my telescope!
Hi Benjamin. If I am not wrong your telescope is a GSO 250/1250. I would like to buy the very same one. Do you recommend it? Cheers from Spain and congrats for your great job!
Hi Pep, that is right! I think it is a great scope, especially for the price. I've also used a Skywatcher 8" and I wasn't too impressed compared to the GSO. In the end, I think buying nice eyepieces will make the biggest impact on your viewing experience.
Hey bud, I'm also in NewZealand. I've been really interested in getting a telescope, I was thinking about an 8" Dobsonian. Where did you buy yours from?
Hisham A.H You can see everything with more clarity and detail with a bigger telescope. it can take in more light than smaller telescopes. Having the right eyepieces and good seeing conditions are very important for good viewing. All the best!
Well, I made all those videos in one day and then moved to Sydney without my telescope! I will get back into it one day... I miss living in a place with dark skies!
@@benjaminpoole9383 I know the struggle dude. I live in Rotterdam, it's a freaking lightbulb on the map :') need to haul my lx600 100km away just to even get a chance

Thanks Alex! I hope you enjoy the telescope. It takes a bit of work, but the rewards are huge.
@@benjaminpoole9383 you're not wrong about that! Who know there was so much cursing in Astronomy 🤣
Thank you, Benjamin. Astronomer, New Zealand and using a Nexus phone. Difficult to be more perfect :)
Is that a 10” dobsonian? How do find it’s portability? Thanks
Cheers.
Will you be explaining eq platforms for dobs and tracking in the future?

1:40 Mostly because the Earth is making a full rotation within 24 hours ;)

Hi Peter, I bought mine from astronz.nz.
hi
Do you see the planets with the same quality as with the smaller telescopes or better?worse?
Hisham A.H You can see everything with more clarity and detail with a bigger telescope. it can take in more light than smaller telescopes. Having the right eyepieces and good seeing conditions are very important for good viewing. All the best!
Clear,thank you for your reply Benjamin,i'm planing to do so in the close future.
Did you quit or something?
Well, I made all those videos in one day and then moved to Sydney without my telescope! I will get back into it one day... I miss living in a place with dark skies!
