I thought I needed a fancy scope to see anything cool, but a pair of cheap binoculars proved me wrong
For over a year, I only used my small telescope, thinking my old binoculars were just for bird watching. Then, during a camping trip in the Adirondacks last fall, I forgot the telescope mount. Out of boredom, I pointed the binoculars at the Milky Way. The wide view of so many stars at once, something my scope never showed, completely stunned me. What simple tool changed your stargazing the most?
