5 Star First Telescope for the Price!5

48 year old beginner here with looking into the sky.
For a first telescope I found it pretty easy to calibrate the finder scope with the main scope (follow directions).
Using a "smart" phone with Google Sky app to first locate planets to seek out with the telescope is a great combination! I hold my phone towards the sky and the gps points out the spot.
I have been using less than a month and take it outside most clear evenings to look at Jupiter (see its four main moons too) ,Neptune (glows like a blue jem!), The Moon ( bright and clear!,can see texture details!) I am sure there are more powerful and computer gps guided telescopes for prices up into thousand dollars +. This one I have is portable to take to other locations,quick setup. Still learning and having a blast looking into the sky! It amazes me! Someday will probably upgrade! This scope has me hooked!
This summer will be better than after Christmas winter night looking. I plan on taking the scope out to better open locations away from city and suburban lights. Will be looking out over Cedar Lake Indiana skies all summer!92 out of 103 found this review helpful.
