Modern commercially-made telescopes enable amateur astronomers to see a surprising amount of detail, and to record - using CCD cameras, video, webcams and film - some remarkably beautiful and detailed images. Contained here also is detailed information on using refractors, reflectors, and, of course, Meade and Celestron's ubiquitous range of computer-controlled SCT telescopes. Features a list of suitable clusters to observe according to the instruments available, from binoculars to large-aperture telescopes.
