A good Newtonian reflector is a joy to own and a tremendously useful and versatile astronomical instrument. If you have a good dark sky site, and don't need to move your telescope very far, an equatorially mounted Newtonian reflector is the most telescope you can get for your money. Just ask Patrick Moore!

Having owned such telescopes since the age of 8, Simon is well placed to recommend the best options for you - regardless of the type of telescope. There are many good (and unfortunately many not so good) telscopes on the market these days. Let us guide you through it.

When we wanted our own brand of top-quality Newtonians, Simon knew who to turn to to build them to the specifications he had in mind. First Light Instruments telescopes were the result, built in the UK by Orion Optics. If it is the best you are looking for, look no further.
