Hi Alien Tech, Thank you so much for this short video. I turned 21 Last week and my whole familie and friends gifted me a skywatcher heritage viruoso 150p. I am very exited to use it and your video helped me understand alot about the eyepieces I get with the telescope. This also helpes me decide which eyepieces I can buy for the forseing future.
Thank you!

Thank you so much for this informative video. Recently bought my second telescope and wanted to learn more.

Im new to this and ive been wondering recently about barlows and eyepieces and what u can do with them. My question is if I have a 400FL scope and I use 2x barlow with a 10mm stock eyepiece which gets 80x, what would happen if I instead use a 5x barlow and a 25mm eyepiece to achieve the same 80x as before. Would I get a better view? More eyerelief? Will it get too dim? I also understand this has to do a lot with what I want to look at for now Im mainly focused on the moon planets and constellations no deep space... for now :)

Edit: also my scope is an 80mm travel scope for beginner purposes

You only need to wear glasses when looking through a telescope if you have astigmatism. I have pretty bad myopia (short sightedness) and I never wear glasses when observing through a scope.

I hate the fact the higher the magnifacation the darker the image and the focus is worse

My telescope has a barrel size of 0.965 inches.

Not helpful at all. Sorry. Too much explication for nothing.
