Stores in a small space and good price with lots of options available. 10 inch CAT is about as big as you can move. [/quote] Thanks for responding... When you talk about options, are you reffering to a cpu that you can use to help in locating via coordinates, and also a camera? [/quote] No... he was referring to folded optics and a short telescope. You're talking about bells and whistles. [/quote] I understand. Thanks for the clarification... What are some of the bells and whistles that are available? And are those bells and whistles available on both CAT and Refracting? [/quote]

I am currently on my way to getting a B.S. in Astronomy with a minor in physics at TCU. I am really interested in getting a good telescope however I am not sure which way to go... Any information would be great! Thanks in advance!
