I wanna build a galilean telescope (please don't advise me to buy it or build a dobsonian). I am wondering what will be the best aperture to observe the planetary details and some nebula or distant galaxies. with more field of view. I used skyandtelescope's scope calculator, I put the followingAperture: 3 inchf/number: 13.Objective focal length: 1000 mmeye piece focal length : 15 mm.And it says that Focal Length: 990mm Magnification: 66xTrue Field of View: 0.8° (The full Moon would easily fit into the field of view)Exit Pupil: 1.2 mmTheoretical Resolving Power: 1.52 arcsecondsApproximate Limiting Magnitude of Telescope: +12.2 (under dark, moonless skies)Is it good specification?? Or if you know a better one than please tell me.Thank you.
