It's funny you say that, I just acquired a Meade reflector telescope with computer-controlled motorized mount that belonged to my late grandfather and I've been meaning to drag it out into the country somewhere to see some stuff.
It's honestly amazing. I had no idea the milky way was so visible.
Technically, the device you are reading this on is in the milky way, too, so yeah, pretty visible to the naked eye.
