Fortunately, that wasn’t the case, as the stars appeared sharp and blue, with the occasional white star visible among them. Some mention the instructions are all in a foreign language, but they find it to be a great introduction to telescopes despite its diminutive size. Its Dobsonian mount makes it quick and easy to set-up and use, and its optics are quite capable of delivering some decent views.

These are values which ideally would be at 0 but as our test optics are all curved lenses, there will always be astigmatism and coma present. Today, our world-class team of optical and electronic engineers continues to push the boundaries of technology. Both eyepieces are manufactured to Celestron’s high-quality standards to ensure a bright, sharp view of the night sky every time. The FirstScope Accessory Kit expands the capabilities of your FirstScope telescope to make it more enjoyable and easier to use, enhance your views of the night sky, and make it safer to transport wherever you go.

If you’re lucky, your target will then be visible in the eyepiece (or at least just outside the field of view. The Accessory kit was ok, apart from it was missing the Sky X CD it said it was supposed to come with. This intelligent, all-in-one observatory and astroimaging system emerges as a catalyst, eliminating the complexities traditionally associated with telescopes and, in turn, metamorphosing your backyard into an inviting gateway to the Universe. And when we took the telescope out to assemble it, we noticed that two of the feet were snapped off!

The scope itself is inside a plastic bag and is held in place by a combination of molded foam and card, while the eyepieces are inside a smaller box. With practice, you’ll be able to find your target, but (arguably) you shouldn’t have to work that hard in the first place. Its small, its neat, its simple, and it looks good, just the sort of thing you would actually use, unless you want to turn your house into an observatory.

Our eyes are not ready for the bright beam of light that emits from the eyepiece, and they “stop down”, just as they would when you step out into the sunlight on a bright summer’s day. Stylish and decorative design makes FirstScope a wonderful keepsake for anyone interested in astronomy.

Just select Zygo Test Report from the drop down box at the top of the listing and we will test the optics in house and provide a full 2 page report with your scope. Once you have attached the finderscope to your telescope tube and have done some simple alignments, you will be able to point with the finder instead of the telescope itself. This award-winning optical system reduces visual defects like field curvature and coma, creating an ultra-flat field for pinpoint stars all the way to the edge of today’s largest imaging sensors. And thanks to its wide field of view, you’ll be able to observe the brightest part of the comet and its tail or favorite deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula.There’s also a few brief notes on observing the Moon, planets, deep sky objects, terrestrial objects and optional accessories.
