Gateway to the heavens
by Professor X.
I love this telescope. I enjoy being able to see planets and the moon. I also bought some additional lens and filters as well as the extra power source so I didn’t have to always buy batteries.
Highly Recommended
by Jason M.
For the price you get an excellent telescope. The construction is top notch and is very sturdy. Patience is necessary as it takes some time to learn but the viewing is great and well worth the money.

Great Deal

For the money, this telescope is so neat! On a clear night you can see starts and the moon so clearly. I am very excited to using this telescope more and even take a special trip out west for some serious viewing.
Works Great
