How do I choose a good telescope?

As a rule of thumb, your telescope should have at least 2.8 inches (70 mm) aperture — and preferably more. Dobsonian telescopes, which are reflectors with a simple mount, provide lots of aperture at relatively low cost. A larger aperture lets you see fainter objects and finer detail than a smaller one can.

Yes, the flag is still on the moon, but you can't see it using a telescope. ... The Hubble Space Telescope is only 2.4 meters in diameter - much too small! Resolving the larger lunar rover (which has a length of 3.1 meters) would still require a telescope 75 meters in diameter.
