Perhaps you have been using your telescope but it doesn't seem to be working quite right and you're asking yourself: "Is it me or the equipment?" Or maybe you'd like to buy a telescope and want to know what to consider before making the purchase.

 

This lecture and workshop will provide the answers.

Workshops are held exclusively online via zoom on Saturday afternoon.
