This entry-level, high quality telescope kit includes a comprehensive, easy-to-follow, 32-page astronomy book. The 60mm aperture refractor scope (with coated glass optics) and all its accessories are clearly explained so that even beginners can quickly find the moon, constellations, various nebula and galaxies or planets in the night sky. Features quality optics, durable construction, and a sturdy aluminum tripod. Terrestrial observations on Earth are also possible by using the included 1.5x erecting lens.
Given the right time of year and sky conditions you will be able to view Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter (including its stripes), Saturn, the moons of both Jupiter and Saturn, Uranus, and many craters on the Moon. You can also see various nebula and galaxies including the Hercules nebula, Eagle nebula, Andromeda galaxy, and a seemingly infinite number of stars. For ages 12+.
