The Double Cluster in the constellation of Perseus...

Last week I received a new telescope: a Celestron C80ED refractor. 
While I haven't given it a full workout yet, it seems like a gorgeous 
instrument for the price and it gets very good reviews. I got it for 
only $350USD from Astronomers Without Borders, and that price includes 
shipping to the USA and Canada. That is dirt cheap for a telescope with 
an ED glass element. It's a 600mm F7.5, so it's a reasonably fast 
telephoto, too. I plan to use it as a 'grab and go' telescope, for 
travel (mounted on a camera tripod), and for astrophotography. I figure 
it will be a nice complement to my Celestron 11, which may finally 
start to see some use this spring after I get its observatory built!
