[BegesRus]

I fancy star-gazing - distant planets and the Orbital Space Station - what should I be buying?

Not a Recommendation I'm afraid but I fancy one of these

The Hubble seems to be quite capable

PS .... You might need need a big drive way though

I have one of these, packs well and works well, good value for money and cheaper than the Meade.

Plus free binoculars

Depends on what you want to spend and how you want to use it. If you plan to move it around get a smaller one. If in one place get the biggest aperture you you can for your budget.

I've had one of these for a few years and I love it. Somewhat portable, can be set up by one person, no problem. Great software to locate objects

Brilliant optics

However, if you're inclined to take it in and out everyday, too big.
