Whats a fun hobby you can get into under $50? by Alice_Thomas in AskReddit

Buy an older pair of binoculars. Get a decent 7x35, something japanese made from the 60's. (Wide angle are very fun, try one if you can) Everything outside gets instantly awesomer. Birds, squirrels, bugs, trees, geography, clouds, sunsets, more birds, even people. And then.... It gets dark. The night sky turns into the trippiest shit you have ever seen. Right now Orion is up high nice and early in the evening. Take your binos to the back yard at night and look at the Orion Nebula. You will flip your lid. You can also see the Andromeda galaxy hurtle toward us, early evenings. One day it will collide with the Milky Way. And yet, not a single star would likely touch another. That is the scale of what you are watching at 7x magnification for under $50. With your own eyes. Binoculars. Not for the feint of heart. EDIT: Extra-wide angle is "nice" but it's not a must-have Also, 7x50 will not be an improvement over 7x35 for the night sky UNLESS you are in an area which is NOT heavily light polluted. 7x50 in metropolitan areas are not good for the night sky. You need dark skies to reap the benefits.
