Find a friend or relative with an edu email and have them buy it for you? its not rocket science
The shorter the focal length the better usually (to a point). While you will be using a relatively long exposure to capture as much of the star light as possible, there is a point that the earth's rotation will actually cause the stars to have trails in the photo.
IF you have a very long focal length, the stars will travel more pixels during the long exposure vs a shorter focal length. Thus, with a shorter focal length lens, you can get away with longer exposures without perceptible star trails.
The Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer pro pack for about 400 bucks, and it has a payload of 11 lbs. the 200-600 weighs about 5 lbs
considering the 200-600 is around 2000 bucks normally, with this sale you could get both and go nuts.
I've been doing a bunch of research, just curious what people on here had to say, there are definitely a few people on here that know more about it than me and I'll take any advice.

That sounds logical, I appreciate the info!
16-35 as it's the widest focal length if you are looking to do astrophotography.
BUT it's also an expensive lens since it's a GMaster lens. (Sony's top of the line glass and optics). If you are on a smaller budget, you can't go wrong with the 20mm (and it's actually slightly faster lens at 1.8, which means the lens will let in more light, which is a benefit when shooting at night / in the dark).
While it's a 4mm difference, it might not be materially noticeable as a beginner than having $1k more in your pocket. With the money saved, you can get yourself a good sturdy tripod which is a must with astrophotography.
Buy it from 6reentoe. I got it for $3148 which was the edu price. urlhasbeenblocked has no tax too.
Same for me too.
