I dunno where to post this so my apologies if wrong place. So, I am interested in buying a telescope that I can use to look at cool stuff. Rings of saturn, random planets, nebulas, galaxies..Now i understand the last 2 there are not going to be what I see in nasa and stuff with the beautiful colored pictures but now that you know what I want, here are the questions I have:

Which telescope should I get to give me the most of these features for the lowest price?

>Be able to see planets such as Mars, Saturn, etc
>Be able to see other galaxies
>Output the image to my computer screen so I don't have to look into something tiny, is that possible? Can I also control it through the computer?
>Can I run some sort of program or have the telescope detect whatever wavelengths I need and then combine them so I can see the sick pics on the monitor?

The latter 2 are probably out of my price range if at all possible for hobbyists but I might as well ask.

And what would I need to be able to know where to actually look depending on what day it is? I live in Los angeles for what its worth. Also if theres just anything you have to add about telescopes or checking out the universe please let me know.
