The next morning, the images were observed by students in the Astronomy 101 class. Time of modern robotic telescopes, would allow for the execution of some high-profile observations that cannot be done by the world's largest telescopes.

 Celestron's Firstscope 114 is an ideal telescope for the beginner. It's big enough to show lots of detail on a wide range of objects, but is not too big to handle. Celestron makes affordable telescopes for people who wouldn’t normally be able to afford a nice telescope.
