The main considerations when selecting a telescope are the aperture level and focal length. A larger aperture enables one to see far objects with less light. However, the bigger the aperture, the bigger the telescope, which limits its portability. The focal length impacts the viewing distance. Another important consideration is the type of telescope (reflector, refractor, or catadioptric), which determines whether it is compatible for close and bright objects (as the moon) or for long-distance stars.
