"Buying a telescope for my kids.. any recommendations?"
Been researching and it's pretty confusing. I'm looking for something that can see details on the moon and at least make out Saturns rings, Jupiter's cloud bands and it's moons. Seeing Andromeda galaxy might be a long shot for my price range, but that would be great too.
Budget is around $500, but i'd be willing to spend a little more if it makes a huge difference. I'm about 40 miles north of NYC so if city light is going to prevent seeing much, i'll probably just get a cheaper one just to look at the moon.
