Description:

For beginning to intermediate observers seeking slightly more detail, this 70mm model is perfect. This telescope's wider aperture delivers images up to 37 percent brighter than those produced by a 60mm refractor telescope. Its slow-motion controls, on both the R.A. and DEC. axes, enhance viewing by making it easier to locate and track objects. This scope can be used for terrestrial and astronomical viewing. The Firstscope is best for focusing on relatively nearby objects such as neighboring planets and the moon.
