How many of you are interested in Astronomy enough to drop $1500 on it? If you could get the images I have shown in this thread with $1500 worth of investment would you do it?

I ask because I am trying gauge how far the average person is willing to go to see space for themselves. If you had an instructional video on what to buy and how to use it would you be willing to drop $1500 to get it?

Also are you willing to stay outside from sun down till after 1:00 AM in your area in order to see these things. Typically I am outside for 4-5 hours at a time. In the summer the bugs are miserable and in the winter the temperature is miserable. However, there are ways to do this and not have to be outside with the equipment but still get the same experience.
