If you like astronomy in a serious way and can’t afford your own observatory, the Max 20 ACF telescope might be the next best thing.
Its a massive 20inch scope which puts it in the 1/2 to 1 meter league that are used for research at observatories. It utilizes a Coma Free
Reflector that is the same type used on Nasa’s Space Hubble Telescope and many of the worlds top Observatories. Also included is the massive Max Mount with 250lb load capacity which is driven by an enormous 652 tooth geared drive assembly which significantly decreases periodic error compared to a 360 tooth gear driven head.
It is listed at 34,999.00 complete.
