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

Observe the feather structure of an eagle from 50 yards or study the rings of Saturn from a distance of 800 million miles. Then focus beyond the solar system to the universe of nebulae, remote galaxies and ancient star clusters. It's an adventure of discovery the whole family can enjoy, in the backyard or wherever your travels take you.Minimize

For those who want to experience astronomy but not get too committed, the Tasco Spacestation 60AZ may be the perfect scope for the first.
