[QUOTE="Lostlunker, post: 67426, member: 670"] You would be amazed at what you can actually see with binoculars if you know where to look. I consider myself an amateur astronomer and own a couple different telescopes but a lot of times I just take out my binoculars. With an average pair of binoculars and good conditions you can see craters on the moon, star clusters, and I've even seen the Andromeda Galaxy and a couple of Jupiter's moons while out camping . You should get a telescope especially if you have any little ones. You can find a nice telescope for around $300. I would guess snow probably spotted a military aircraft based on the fact it was blinking. Here is a shot of the moon from my 8" Dobsonian telescope and my buddies dslr camera we took a few weeks back.
