Description
A telescope for beginners that makes the night sky inviting
This telescope for beginners is a friendly first step into astronomy for children and adults alike. It is a refractor with a 70 mm multi-coated lens, which gathers light for clear views of the Moon and its craters. A finderscope helps you line up on your target before you look through the eyepiece, which makes the first evenings much less frustrating. A smartphone adapter is included, so you can hold your phone steady at the eyepiece and photograph what you see to share with family and friends. It is an inspiring way to spend clear evenings together.
Benefits
- 70 mm multi-coated lens: Gathers light for clear views of the Moon.
- Finderscope included: Makes it easier to find and follow your target.
- Smartphone adapter: Take photos of the Moon through the telescope.
- Refractor design: A straightforward telescope type that suits beginners.
- Family learning: Turns clear evenings into shared time outdoors.
Designed for
Designed for children and beginners who are curious about the night sky, and for parents and grandparents who want to share that curiosity. Set it up in the garden, on a balcony or at a dark campsite on a clear night and start with the Moon, the easiest and most rewarding first target. As a telescope for kids, it encourages questions about space, science and the seasons, and the phone adapter lets them keep a photo diary of what they find. It makes a memorable birthday or Christmas gift. Younger children should use it with an adult, and never point it at the Sun.
