Product Description
Celebrate the history of astronomy with a brilliant first step into a future of learning! In 1609, world-renowned Italian scientist Galileo Galilei introduced an elementary telescope to the growing astronomy community - An invention that would send the human species hurtling into countless discoveries and innovations for centuries to come. Now, four centuries later, you can pay tribute to the genius of Galileo, as well as many other notable heroes of astronomy and science, by pointing this beautifully simple telescope up at the night sky. Its 76-millimeter aperture provides a brilliantly vivid picture while two eyepieces allow you to zoom in either fifteen or seventy-five times magnification. Explore the craters of the moon. Map out your favorite constellations. Witness the rings of Saturn and the moons of Jupiter. You can even use it to see the Andromeda galaxy! The whole sturdy base smoothly rotates while a simple knob allows you to effortlessly adjust the telescope's angle. Once you have it pointed where you want, just turn the knobs near the eyepiece to focus in on the perfect image.
