Now that you have purchased your telescope, what's next? The most likely accesories you will want to look into are eyepieces. These are the tools that provide the magnification that brings those distant objects closer for a better look. You may have gotten one or two with the telescope, but if you want to take advantage of its capability, you will need more eyepieces or a Barlow lens or both.
However, like all aspects of the hobby eyepieces have a vocabulary of their own and a wide range of choices in price and features. Ed will try to make this complex topic understandable to beginners and may even have a tidbit or two for the more experienced.
