For my first telescope, I got a Celestron Nexstar 5SE. It’s great for seeing the moon and some solar-system bodies, but they’ll be small. So far I’ve been able to make out some color in Jupiter, but it’s not anything like what you’ll see in an astronomy magazine or anything.
You may want to go with the larger 8SE if you want to see more. I thought this was a good starting point for me and I can already tell I’ll be excited to upgrade.
