Meade NG-70 (140 x 70mm) Telescope


Recently upgraded from 60mm to 70mm aperature, Meade's NG70 telescope combines improved light-gathering ability with light-loss-reducing special optical coatings to produce noticeably sharper images of both celestial and terrestrial objects, making for a much better viewing experience. All the major planets except Pluto are clearly visible. The Moon stands out in near three-dimensional detail, revealing craters, mountain ranges, and fault lines. Dozens of external galaxies are visible; and, in our own Milky Way, this telescope displays hundreds of nebulae, star clusters, double and multiple stars, and variable stars.Minimize


Meade NG-60 (20200) (233 x 60mm) Telescope


A perfect beginning telescope designed specifically for land use, and an occasional peak at the sky. The tripod mount that holds the telescope is designed to move only in straight lines, called Altazimuth.Objects in the sky move in semi-circles, never in straight lines.Use lower power eyepieces to track the Moon, and keep it in the eyepiece.Minimize


Bushnell Voyager 78-9945 Telescope


This telescope truly is the ultimate first telescope. The Sky Tour handset will actually speak, giving you a personal real-time tour of the night sky each and every night. Each tour object will include directions associated with it to allow you to quickly find the object with your telescope.
