Deep Space objects with 70mm scope.

Onesimus · 2011-02-27 00:33:02

Is it possible to see any galaxies with a 70mm? Nebula? comets? clusters? If that is not the case, what aperture size next up would be appropriate for the job? using my 70mm scope I managed to get a look at Jupiter and its 4 moons. Awesome sight for someone who is new to it all. Thanks Onesimus
