We bought this telescope just over a month ago as a little bit of an impulse buy. We are far from being astronomy enthusiasts but, noting how clear the night sky had been around then, and the publicity surrounding a comet that was visible at the time, we thought it would be fun at a reasonable price point. Jupiter and Saturn were bright at the time and we were able to pick them out on the first night we had the telescope after (easily) setting it up during the daylight hours as the instructions advise. We were able to see Jupiter well and even four of its' moons. With Saturn we were able to see the rings which was cool. However, they do appear very small in the viewfinder, even at max magnification. Saturn's rings were tiny but visible, and Jupiter's moons appeared as tiny pinpricks of light aligned with the planet. It was clear what we were looking at, and pretty interesting, but was far from the color illustrations of the planets you see in textbooks and on the internet. Someone said it was possible to see the 'spot' on Jupiter's surface - we were certainly not able to do that. The only time we got a 'textbook' view of anything was looking at the moon's surface which was really clear and fantastically detailed. I'm hoping this doesn't sound negative because overall we have had a very positive experience with this and with the ease of use in particular. Moving forward we are likely to be occasional - and happy - users of this telescope.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes! The 25m lens is great for wide view on planets and the moon. The 10m lens is great for seeing more deep sky objects like galaxies or really close up views on planets.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.For the moment I have been able to seen Jupiter at night. It has been cloudy where I live and have not been able to view others. I can say that Jupiter looked very clear, good quality.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.So far I have seen the rings around Saturn, I the Jupiter and all its colors. and Mars. I have seen some costelations also.. The app helps you identify the planets and stuff very well. Just if you can get the bigger version and upgrade your eyepieces.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not really ,you have to keep moving until you actually see something
