  • How should the Federal Reserve Board use its policy to achieve its goals?
  • How effective is Federal Reserve monetary policy in achieving its goals?
  • Is the composition of the decision-making bodies of the Federal Reserve appropriate for a democracy?

A couple of years ago my son showed an interest in astronomy and we bought a 6" reflector telescope. We use it pretty regularly and have enjoyed it immensely. Lately we've both been wishing we had something bigger to be able see more things and to see what we can see now with more detail.

How do you determine the size of telescope needed to view a certain object?

I understand that there are a lot of other factors that come into play when talking about what you can see and how well you can see it. Ideally I suppose what I'm looking for is some sort of chart/table that gives a general guideline of the scope size and some of the objects that should be viewable (with an average setup).

Are there any such resources?
